HOW TO MAKE KETTLE FRIED CHICKEN
______________________________________________________________
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
- 3-5 Chicken Quarters cut into sections
- 2 cups Flour
- 3-4 tbs baking powder
- 2 tbs bbq rub (see recipe below)
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 tbs vinegar
- 2 eggs
BBQ Rub we used to season flour:
- 2 tbs Kosher salt
- 2 tbs coarse black pepper
- 1 tbs garlic powder
- 1/2 tbs paprika
- 1/2 tbs chili powder
- 1/2 tbs cayenne pepper
STEP #1
To prepare your kettle fried chicken start by mixing together in separate bowls, your wet ingredients and your dry ingredients. Once your station is ready, dip your chicken into the flour mixture, then into the egg/milk mixture and then back into the flour mixture.. Repeat this step until all your chicken is breaded.
SETP #2
With your Chicken breaded set up your grill for cooking indirect at around 400F. Once your grill is up to temperature, place the chicken onto the grill opposite the coals. Add in a couple small pieces of hardwood for a kiss of smoky flavour, and then close the lid and begin cooking - we will have a total cook time of around 45-50 minutes.
STEP #3
After 20 minutes of cooking open up the grill and spray the chicken with a light coat of cooking oil and then flip the chicken and do the same on the bottom side. Next, close the grill and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, open up the grill one last time and flip the chicken one last time and continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes. Once your chicken is golden, crispy and reading between 175-195 you can remove them from the grill and enjoy the feast.
That’s it!

[@dilltheoriginaldog]

I've tried this 4 times now. The secret is spraying the chicken as it cooks. This is now the favourite food all my guests ask for when I bbq! 🙂

[@JL-qk2sk]

what kind of oil should i use to spray on the chicken, looks crunchie and yummy 😋😋

[@dilltheoriginaldog]

@@JL-qk2sk I use the ‘one-cal per spray’ type but any oil that can be sprayed on should do the trick. Don’t be upset if the first try isn’t perfect,it takes a bit of practice.

[@marty5300]

I'm gonna make these this weekend.. it looks so good. I like that it's basically air fried without soaking it in oil. I'm excited to see how it turns out.

[@lorijohn101]

I tried this tonight for supper. All I can say is wow! It was delicious! Thanks

[@michaelbower85]

I made this tonight! My only modification was excluding the Cayenne pepper (wife hates spice). It was so good, I can't wait to make it again

[@murali1981in]

Oh man that looks so good. I am definitely trying this out this weekend.

[@timboybaker]

Just to let you know absolutely loverly worked really well with the vortex thanks 😊👍

As someone who cannot live without fried chicken, This looks like a great way to enjoy it. Thanks for this great presentation.

[@Keithtimes]

There's a buffalo chicken thigh appetizer on the menu at McGuier's in Florida that reminds me of this.. I'd add some buffalo sauce to the wet mix and maybe some cornstarch to the dry and boom, perfect crispy buffalo chicken. This is a great video/recipe. Looks and sounds delicious.

Probably the best kettle fried chicken I've seen so far on youtube. Gonna try this out tomorrow. Thanks for video.

[@alge3399]

I havent tried on a charcoal grill yet but i do use the same technique in my home convection oven. Comes out great. I do brine my chicken overnight (which i recommend),because you do lose moisture in dry heat.

Going to give this a try on the next batch of wings. Thanks!

yeah its works great especially for this! Cheers bud.

Man you can hear the crunch. Im in love with fried chicken. But stay away for the most part. The occasional KFC STOP helps with the withdrawals. I make it at home but the mess is nuts. I love anything I can achieve on the bbq. This so much cleaner than frying. Excellent job. And even on the affordable Weber. 👍👍👍👍

[@TheRealChetManley]

FYI, this also works great on a pellet grill. It's a fantastic method, better than regular fried chicken IMO.

[@charleswatson3419]

Just watched this..... looks GREAT! That said.. I just looked on your website and I couldn't find the recipe in the "Poultry" section. Was I looking in the wrong area?

[@rossherring1448]

G’day mate, do you reckon I’d get benefit from leaving the chicken in the fridge for a few hours after coating in flour mix/buttermilk?

[@HellYeahKimballsBBQ]

Oh hell yeah Jabin! Love deep fried chicken, but can't stand the wasted oil and cleanup deep frying. Great job, Cheers!

[@PostalBarbecue]

yeah same here. This is a great hack to have fried style chicken without the mess and waste.

Should we season the chicken before coating in the flower? Or does it have enough flavor just from whats in the flour?

Making this tonight Jabin! No video though lol.

[@charlespeterson5536]

Hello Jabin!! Where do you purchase your racks you have your chicken on?

[@jamieroberts3682]

Dumb question but what is the Vinegar used here, I'm in the UK and our default vinegar is malt vinegar. Is that what you have used. Going to made this today if I can get an answer then many thanks.

[@MrFurnaceface]

I don’t have a slow and sear. Will this work ok if I just bank the coals to one side?

[@PostalBarbecue]

Yeah for sure that will work great!

[@bucketlist2016]

Doing this tonight I’ll tag you. Do you recommend adding any would to the fire or could that mess it up somehow?

[@PostalBarbecue]

I added a touch of wood to give it a kiss of smoked. I think with this recipe, less is more.

[@charlieismyname]

Thank you for cooking the dark meat to 185, texture of the meat is way better at that temp than 165 for the dark.

[@PostalBarbecue]

yeah i agree.. 185 is my preferred for dark meat chicken.

[@SkywalkerRancher]

Thanks for the vid! Instead of the milk and vinegar, could you just go ahead and use buttermilk instead? Just wondering

[@PostalBarbecue]

Yup you totally can.

[@justinmorell5273]

The bbq rub recipe posted doesn't include onion, but you mentioned it verbally in the video. I'm sure it would be inconsequential, but was curious if you used onion. Thanks for the recipe; I'm making it right now. Keep up the great videos!

[@PostalBarbecue]

Hey man. I’ll look into that. Usually I match the onion and garlic. It says 1tbs garlic so it was likely 1tbs onion powder as well.

[@PostalBarbecue]

Also tag me in an IG post when you’re done. I’d love to see it.

[@Timotheusism]

Hello there My name is Tim Williams and I was watching you Barbeque Kettle Fried Chicken. I also want to know can you also do the same way with Bone In Chicken Breast? if so please let me know how long do you have to grill them? Thank you and I look forward to receiving more of your recipes. Tim Williams

[@OliverLeveritt]

If you can cook bone-in thighs and legs, you can cook bone-in breasts. Grill them to 165° and remove from heat. White meat is done at 165°. Dark meat requires higher internal temperature, hence the higher temps he mentioned in the video.

[@jad814]

First, this NOT a complaint in any way. Next... I've done this 4 times now in my BGE, and no matter what I do, no matter how much I monitor for high enough heat, that first flip leaves wayyy too much of the awesome exterior on the grates. I've sprayed with 500+ def cooking oil (both the grates and the food), you name it... it's truly perplexing! My question, in a truly "indirect" cook, I feel like I could go full "no flip" until it's done (maybe spritzing with said cooking oil along the way if it looks too dry). Thoughts?

[@dixiethalmueller6620]

Were did you get the shaker from?

[@PostalBarbecue]

That is from Pit Barrel Cooker. There is a link to them in the description. :)

Much healthier than deep fried
