Rotisserie BBQ Chicken



Checking the freezer and found a 8lbs chicken. How should i cook  it. BBQ of course . Rotisserie I think. After it defrosted I mixed up some butter and some Club House smoked paprika and rosemary .


Gently lift up the skin and rub the butter mixture all over the meat as well over the skin then added more rub over the butter for more flavor. Rubbed and ready for Charcoal . 





 3 hours later and 165F in the dark meat / 165F in the white meat , it's ready

Ummmm . Tasty

My favorite Charcoal is Basque Hardwood lump Charcoal. Available at NAPA Auto Parts in Belle River
