"This not unknown in chickens at the point of sale and is hard to kill by BBQ alone. "
Well I have a Weber kettle BBQ and I regularly cook whole chickens on it. In fact I cooked the Christmas chicken on it.
With the lid on a medium chicken takes 1hours 20 mins to cook and will be cooked perfectly all the way through and will be a beautiful golden colour. To check if a chicken is cooked thoroughly shake its leg. If it feels as if it will detach easily it is cooked.
In general the mistake people make when grilling food is to have the fire way too hot. Alway cook on a dying fire, not one that is still to reach its peak.
The other problem is that for some curious reason men who never venture into the kitchen have a curious idea that they know all about cooking over an open fire!
