Fired up a couple of birds on our grill/smoker via the rotisserie...We like a little Cajan style seasoning rub shaken over a light
coat of olive oil, cooked over charcoal & mesquite scraps. I've found by putting the drip pan in the center and then staggering the lighting
of each side by about an hour, allows us to maintain{with-in reason} a nice slow-n-low temperature{225-250 degrees} and prolonged smoke
session lasting us about 4-5 hours. During the last hour or so I raise the charcoal tray up as close as I dare to the birds which brings the
internal temp up just right for finishing.
First bird was last nights dinner as was. Today I turned the other one into a sandwich salad. No recipe just seat of the pants whatever
strikes the moment...This one has red & green bell peppers, onion, garlic, a herb/salt mix{store bought}, black pepper and some paprika
to top it off. And some mayo to bind 'er all together...Deelish on lightly toasted sourdough bread or even just lumped upon some iceberg lettuce.
