    Wouldn’t be a new grill without some extra fire and smoke.

    I’ll only use one fire starter cube next time.

    I use the side burner on the smoker for starting the chimney. In fact that's all I use it for. lol

    I'm snap a blood vessel if I had to get a mower out to cut that strip of grass. Shit would be concreted faster than you could blink an eye.

    It’s artificial grass. No mower necessary ;)

    It’s for the dogs to shit. Only reason I didn’t cement it all

    So it looks like you prepare like normal but you remove the back bone and lay the bird flat?

    Yes.. cooks a lot more evenly so the breasts don't dry out and over cook before the thighs are done.

    Spatchcocking let's everything get done at the same time while still being juicy!
