You know what?? I have been watching video after video of how to best use a weber kettle and this gentleman hits it out of the pak. No nonsense real world bbq. I am not trying to win world BBQ pit master. I just want to have good BBQ as a regular working man who doesn't have all the time in world to learn fancy techniques. Awesome videos Mr. Barlow. I learned alot for sure.
Thank you so much John! Seems like you're tapped into the spirit of what we're all about here at Barlow BBQ 🔥 Your comment means a lot, it inspires what we do. Thank you for stopping by!
I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.
Nice smoked chicken. This is smoking chicken 101. This is a great instructional video for those who just got their first kettle and need help. We take knowing how for granted, but there are thousands coming on the scene with their first kettle with no experience. Great job.
Phil thank you - that was my exact intent when making this video. I hope it proves helpful to those just beginning out there. 👍 And I hope you are staying safe this weekend!
Hi Barlow, I just wanted to let you know that I got my first Kettle five months ago. This was the first thing I cooked on it, and ever since I have been barbecuing at least once a week. I’ve tried tons of stuff. I’ve cooked your chicken recipe here about four times now and always enjoy it. Thank you for making this video. It was my introduction to barbecuing. It always comes out tasty. You’re the man. Good job
This makes me so happy to hear!! I started this channel with the intention to inspire and help out folks like yourself who may be just starting out. I'm so glad that you are having fun and trying new things. I'm honored that we inspired your first steps on your new BBQ journey! Smoke em if ya got em! 🤙🤙
I have been using this method for over 30 years. I use two chickens and put pierced lemons in each one to help keep moist. I put a little more charcoal on each side and it’s done in a little over an hour. It’s my family’s favorite meal!
I’ve made this chicken three times on my gas grill. Kids gave me a Weber charcoal grill for Father’s Day so I’m cooking my first on charcoal right now. Thank you for the videos.
Hi, @barlowBBQ - thank you for such a simple and helpful video. I'm one of those you've aimed this at. No pretensions here, no over complications. Just how an instructional film should be :)
Looks good! I've cooked many chickens on covered grills. Hard to screw them up. It takes longer, but I stuff them with stove top. The butter in the dressing serves to keep the bird moist.
nice color there Barlow, ... some people out there don't want t take the time to go into details and they only respond to certain subscribers but glad you respond because that means you really appreciate it...thanks for sharing
Thank you, that means a lot! I am really trying to keep the details - it can be easy to overlook the little things that we seasoned cooks take for granted. A big part of this channel’s mission is to help folks who are just getting in to backyard bbq. And we really do appreciate everyone who takes the time to comment, it is inspiring! Glad you stopped by and hope you’re enjoying the weekend! ✌️✌️
I just copied this style of cooking on my drum style BBq. Couldn't maintain 400 but did maintain about 375-380 for an hour and a half. 20 minutes to rest and holy $hit that was great. Thanks for helping my bbq/smoking journey
Sounds like you had it dialed in just right, Chris! BBQ isn't an exact science 😉 So glad to hear that the recipe was helpful for you, inspiration is that we're all about. Smoke em if ya got em! 🔥🔥
I made a version of this tonight. Used food lab's Peruvian style rub on 4 lbs of skin on thighs. Lined them all up right down the middle with the side by side baskets as you had it, and came out great. Hit 400 F grill temp using a full chimney of charcoal, done in about 40 mins. Thx for inspiring me to cook tonight.
Hi tried this out last night minus the chipotle , my first ever cook on my new weber added 3 hickory chunks , anyway it was outstanding best chicken i ever had ,thanks so much dor this vid and recipe for the rub ,,, grill on !!!!
Cooked a whole chicken on my Kettle at the weekend and it is the nicest chicken I have ever eaten. It was so moist, all the way through and had that lovely smoky flavour off it. A temp reader is crucial for this because if you have a bigger chicken, it's going to take longer. You need to get your temp right.
Thank you! Yeah wanted to keep this one real simple just to show show easy it is for someone who may have never tried it before. Appreciate you coming by! ✌️✌️
I'm new to the channel I have a kettle GBS and will make your rub. your vids are Spot on, no fuss and user-friendly. I'm in the UK in e mini heatwave . same temp as Florida. keep safe Mathew and Thank you from sunny England .
You know I am going to tell my wife it's your fault if it all goes pear shaped but naturally ill be taking all the credit of its outstanding. Regards from Down Under. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

This recipe is dead easy and dead awesome. Have made it nearly every week during quarantine. Definitely getting near mastering my BBQ skills thanks to videos and you tubers like Barlow (and also working on mastering my drinks! Smoky margarita, watermelon martini and old fashion definitely nailed and cahpirinia next!)
This looks really easy! Thanks for sharing! I do have a question about smoking. I’m always worried about when to add the wood to the coals, too early and you lose the smoke, too late and your meat gets the dirty white smoke. I use wood blocks. Do you have any tricks on when is the right time or temp to put the wood on the coals?
Greetings CHEF Barlow... GREAT videos on weber cooking and tasty chicken results... problem: i like the seasoning hotter than my wife, what rub/seasoning do you have in inventory to recommend for mild seasoning? where are your products sold? thanks. really enjoying cooking on the Weber...took all the 'fear' out of it and EASY to follow step by step process... tried a Pork Shoulder. our grandkids dropped by just as I was pulling the pork and they were shocked their "Papa" knew how to cook, and, they could not get enough so we bundled up a pile of fresh pork and enjoyed it for dinner. you do outstanding work... thanks and we are looking forward to getting better and better under your training and teaching... thanks again!! joyce and rick from noblesville INdiana
What would happen if you cooked it in the middle of the bottom grate? Was wondering if it would be more crispy? Looks great though. I want to do this in a few days on my Weber. Gotta pick up some Kingsford first.
Nice chicken bud. I love how simple you kept it. Also I always appreciate that you leave your tips on, it just makes the wing look more fancy. Ha. Cheers.
Thanks for coming by, Jabin! Kept this one super simple - more of a how to than a recipe, plus folks can adapt the recipe however they want. And YES! I love the tips...especially when they are nice and crunchy! 👌👌
I've been cooking it like this for years (except without the wood chips) A couple comments: 1) You don't really need a grill thermometer. Just watch the breast temp starting at about the hour mark 2) I recommend a drip pan (homemade from aluminum foil is fine) so you don't grease up the bottom inside of your grill Any idea why lower cooking temps aren't recommended for chicken?
Hey Jeremy, those are some good comments! 1) I agree, and don't generally use one for chicken. But I like to use them when making a video just in case some viewers would find it helpful 😉 2) I also use a foil drip pan whenever I'm using the kettle, I have no idea why I didn't in this video lol. And I'm not sure why chicken is typically cooked at lower temps. I think that when you're cooking a cut of chicken with the skin in on, higher temps help crisp it up. But that's just my guess. Thanks again for the comments!
Remember pre-soak your wood so it won't burn to fast and also help for black smoke we don't want black smoke only clear white smoke for flavor the black smoke will give it a harsh smoke flavor
Once the charcoal is going and the wood is on, put the lid on and give it about 10-15 minutes for the black smoke to clear up. Then you can go ahead and put the meat on. 👍
Sauce would have been a great call, but I really wanted to keep this simple in the hops that folks could adapt and add however they wanted. Rain just stared here in Western NC from the hurricane. Under a flash flood warning but we live up on a hill so we should be just fine. Hangin in there! ✌️✌️
Yeah I was thinking since I was aiming this one directly at beginners would be more appropriate to use the baskets as they would most likely have them. It’s a tough call sometimes when I’m making vids! ✌️✌️
That looked good to me. Except 165°F is a little low for me now days but acceptable. Your rub recipe looks great. Martha was AWOL? I noticed the loose handle at 2:55 mark. Min did that recently too. Easy fix, the old welded on handles, prior to 2015 didn’t do that often., However, if on the very rare occasion they did there was no easy repair. Hope you survived the hurricane OK!
Martha was at work the day I filmed, was hoping she’d be back in time for a taste test, but she did get to try it later on and she loved it. As for the handle, yep lost one of the washers that attaches to the underside of the screw to keep it attached. Looking for a replacement 😞 Rain came in early this morning and will be with us today and through tonight. Shouldn’t be too bad though, we live on top of a hill so no worries of flooding and our house. 🤞🤞
I love this video. I just bought my second weber kettle and it’s been over 40 years since I’ve cooked on my first one. I also have the charcoal coal baskets . The basket is brand new, the kettle is an old one I got from Craig’s list. Haven’t cooked on it yet, but I’m going to be doing chicken on it mainly. Thanks for sharing.
You are correct, the kettle has a thermometer built in on the lid. BUT when cooking indirect like we are in this video, I set the lid so the vent is over the meat, thus the lid thermometer is over the coals. That means that the temp the lid thermometer reads would be MUCH higher than the temp on the side of the meat because the thermometer is over the hotter coals. Make sense? Great question!
Man I really wanna try this but I don’t have a grill thermometer or one on my Weber. I also just can’t really set aside money for one right now. Stoked to try it eventually though. Thank you for the video
You know what, you don’t have to have a grill thermometer to make this. It’s a handy tool but by no means a requirement. If you’ve got a charcoal chimney, fill it up halfway to 3/4 full and light that. That would be a good amount to get the heat up in your Weber. Also keeping both bottom and top vents open. Just keep an eye on the temp of your chicken as it cooks so you don’t dry it out. Hope that helps, and we really appreciate you coming by! 🤙

Very nice! Surprised you didn’t hit it with any sauce at the end but just rub and smoke goes s long way too. Have a good weekend brotha!
Sauce would have been a great call, but I really wanted to keep this simple in the hops that folks could adapt and add however they wanted.
Rain just stared here in Western NC from the hurricane. Under a flash flood warning but we live up on a hill so we should be just fine. Hangin in there! ✌️✌️

That’s awesome! That Weber will provide you with years of great bbq, enjoy!! 🔥🔥
good video mate
Much appreciated! Thanks for coming by! 🤙
I'm sure the chicken tastes fine, but 400 degrees is NOT smoking.... This is simply grilling using indirect heat. Very different.
🤷♂️
How long did u rest chicken?? No foil?? Eager to try this fast cook😍😍
Looks good Barlow... liked that wing! Miss you guys too... in response to comment on Christy's channel : )
BIGGS! 💥It’s a pleasure to have you back in the comments my friend! Thanks for coming by ✌️
Hey Matt! Looking good! Nice set up.......using the standard kidney baskets. Everyone has them.....and they work! \m/
Yeah I was thinking since I was aiming this one directly at beginners would be more appropriate to use the baskets as they would most likely have them. It’s a tough call sometimes when I’m making vids! ✌️✌️

Shouldn’t be too bad though, we live on top of a hill so no worries of flooding and our house. 🤞🤞
I love this video. I just bought my second weber kettle and it’s been over 40 years since I’ve cooked on my first one. I also have the charcoal coal baskets . The basket is brand new, the kettle is an old one I got from Craig’s list. Haven’t cooked on it yet, but I’m going to be doing chicken on it mainly. Thanks for sharing.
Great to hear you're firing up the old kettle again! Hopefully it won't be another 40 years until you use it again lol 😅😉
You need to use lump wood when cooking chicken on a Weber kettle. Don’t use briquettes they are for low and slow.
We'll keep that in mind!
Love the channel. I am going to be trying this tonight. I did not see anyone else ask this but wondering, do you recommend spatchcocking the chicken?
Honestly, you'll probably get better results by spatchcocking!
Can you do this on a Smokey joe?
I don't see why not! Give it a try! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You use a digital thermometer but it seems like the kettle has one build in, was the kettle thermometer at the same temp?
You are correct, the kettle has a thermometer built in on the lid. BUT when cooking indirect like we are in this video, I set the lid so the vent is over the meat, thus the lid thermometer is over the coals. That means that the temp the lid thermometer reads would be MUCH higher than the temp on the side of the meat because the thermometer is over the hotter coals. Make sense? Great question!

Just keep an eye on the temp of your chicken as it cooks so you don’t dry it out. Hope that helps, and we really appreciate you coming by! 🤙
Looks really good but I never check temp for my chicken.
Sounds safe to me!
@@BarlowBBQ next time I will use gloves for safety.
