    Your videos continue to impress. From the first couple I watched I assumed you had restaurant experience by the way you cook. Does the Sysco cling wrap I saw in this video confirm? Workhorse should partner with your awesome recipes. Good stuff! 100 more days until my 1969 arrives. Please keep content coming.

    Looks good my friend, that is a great add on to the fire box, it breathes real well with the legs on the fire great, of course with the cost of these grills today, that should come standard, they know the fire needs to breathe. The chicken looks great, getting the skin crisp, and the chicken moist, is not as easy as it looks, well done sir.

    Another great video my man! I too am a fan of using a log rack/grate on the firebox. Easier ash cleanup, plus coal bed gets airflow from both top and bottom of grate. As for the water pan, I only use it to cook brisket/beef ribs, but not on chicken. I feel the extra moisture doesn't help crisp up the chicken skin. But that dry brining seems to do the trick for you. I have to try that next time. Cheers brother 🍻

      Chicken creates it`s own oil from the skin, I do not use water on my chicken as well, rule of thumb is no added moisture to the skin the dry brine will pull out moisture.

    I noticed that you keep a car jack when cooking. Is it because the pit is NOT level? or is it because your patio concrete is not level? Just curious, can you put a level on top of the firebox and pit? Obviously, it would be a fire hazard to have a pit that leans toward the firebox, and have the potential for a grease fire. Great video... by the way, are you on Instagram?
