This is a quick and easy way to barbeque a whole chicken. Simple as 1,2,3.
1 - Cut out the backbone of a whole Chicken
2 - Season said Chicken with seasoning of your choice
3 - Quickly and easily barbeque the Chicken with the use of a large cast iron Skillet.

What can be easier then that......

For this you will need to have a large Cast Iron Skillet.

You start of with a nice whole chicken.
Using a sharp knife....or better yet....a GOOD pair of poultry sheers (also known as culinary shears or more accurately "Heavy scissors")..... cut the chicken from "stem to stern" along the back bone and lay the chicken flat. Then simply remove the keel bone and the wing tips (these will burn anyway). Rinse the chicken under cold water and pat dry.
From here you can marinate or season the chicken any way you want....the Sky's the limit.

• Preheat your grill AND skillet on high for at least 10 minutes
• Liberally season the entire bird with dry rub ( Adkins Western Dry Rub)
• Oil your cooking surface. I use a plastic spray bottle containing cooking oil with a high smoke point.
• Place the chicken bone side down on the cooking grate
• Carefully place the Iron Skillet on top of the chicken (don't forget it's HOT)
• If using a gas grill, lower your heat to low and close the lid.
• After about 15 minutes Turn the chicken and again place skillet on top.
• After about another 10-15 minutes, I turned the bird again and sprinkled some Mexican Spice Mix on top.

Just before the chicken appears to be done I squeeze some Black Magic Finishing Sauce over the bird. Although it is not necessary I find it helps bring out the flavors.

Cooking the chicken this way shortens the time needed and quickly cooks the chicken throughout.
REMEMBER....this is how "I" did it. As long as you have a chicken and some good marinade or seasoning mix you can't go wrong.

Things you will need:
· 1 whole Chicken
· GOOD poultry sheers (or a very sharp knife)
· Dry Rub (or any other seasoning or marinade you prefer)
· 1 Cast Iron Skillet
· Black Magic Finishing Sauce
· Tex Mex Spice Seasoning
