After a night of sleep, I’ve recovered some of my senses and decided I will be grilling these birds like a real man should!Ok, it’s going to be cold here this weekend (in the 30’s!). I’ve become such a vagina as I get older......
So I’m whimping out and will cook in the oven.
Anyhow, it’s Conference Championship Sunday coming up (go Chiefs!). I was thinking about doing the hot wings thing again since they turned out so well.
But then I thought, “How about a whole hot chicken?”. Or two......

So tonight I’m dry brining my fresh from the butcher shop chickens. I halved them and brined two of the halves with a kosher salt/poultry seasoning mix. The other two halves got a mix of kosher salt/spicy cajun seasoning.
They'll sit in the fridge till saturday afternoon, maybe sunday morning.

The ”hot chicken” will get a buffalo sauce coating during the cooking process, the other will be a more traditional roasted chicken.
I’ll let you know how it goes.

Somebody got a package from Alaska today!

They ended up sending me a little over six pounds of king salmon filets!

What a freaking deal! I paid about half cost for this. They got a return customer with me. (Unless, of course, this salmon poisons me, then, no)
I bought a small bottle of white truffle olive oil too. It’s pricey crap as well. $21 for a little over three ounces.

I‘m going to try @Noobz347 ’s potato recipe. I’ll use that fancy smancy olive oil for them. I think those potato’s would be excellent with the salmon.
