Lone Star Grillz “Garlic Rosemary Chicken”

Remember to always wash your hands prior to preparing. Use food grade gloves where appropriate to prevent contamination. 

Recipe and Ingredients: 

- 1 Whole Chicken (Fresh, ours was around 6 pounds)
- 1 stick of partially melted Unsalted Butter
- 1.5 Teaspoons of Dried Rosemary
- 1 Teaspoon of Garlic Powder
- ½ Teaspoon of Sage
- Lone Star Grillz “Texas Fusion” Rub

DIRECTIONS: 

  1. Make Compound Butter Rub: Mix partially melted butter, Dried Rosemary, Garlic Powder & Sage in a bowl, set aside to allow to firm up slightly.

  2. Setup your Lone Star Grillz Smoker to run at 250-275 degrees Fahrenheit.  

  3. Prepare the Chicken by unpackaging, removing any packages from the cavity (if needed), and removing the backbone using kitchen shears (as seen in video).

  4. Pat the entire surface dry on both sides with paper towels.

  5. Apply the Compound Butter Rub generously to all surfaces on both sides, be sure to cover completely.

  6. Season the entire outside (both sides) with our Lone Star Grillz “Texas Fusion” Rub.

  7. Place the Chicken on the Smoker and allow it to cook while managing your fire occasionally to maintain the 250-275 Fahrenheit Temperatures.

  8. The cook will take 2.5-3 hours on average, but you can start taking temperatures around the 2 hour mark (remember this is a 6-pound Chicken so adjust accordingly to your cook).

  9. Once the Chicken hits 160-162 degrees Fahrenheit, remove from the smoker and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes.  

  10. Slice, serve and ENJOY it with your favorite sides!
