Smoky , aromatic chiken by Dziadek

Post by Siara » Wed Feb 09, 2011 20:06

Hi all smoke addicts,

Nothing to smoke for a weekend? well.
Let me share with you a recipe, for a smoky, aromatic, weekend chicken by our polish friend @Dziadek.

We will need:

1 pcs Chicken
2-3 pcs Apium stem
some Garden parsley leaves
Cure ( 1,18 kg peklosol for 10 l of water ) CW will help you to re-calculate :wink:

Sure guys... here you go:
Brining Solution For Poultry
2.64 gallons water (10 litres)
8 oz. (227 grams) Prague Powder Cure #1 (American)
@ 10% pick-up = 150 p.p.m.
(to make 25°; brine - add 16 oz. salt
Conversions by Chuckwagon: 14:48 1/9/11

Apium is wild celery :mrgreen:

We put the chicken in the brine for 18 - 24 h.
Then, we clean chicken and stuff it with herbs ( put as much as you can ), like that:

Next, soak the chicken in hot water of 90°C for 10 minutes. Reduce to 80°C and keep untill chicken will reach 72°C - 73°C inside thickest (breast) muscle.

Gently remote chicken from water, and cool on air for 30 minutes. Put into smoker pre heated to 50°C. Apply light smoke until skin will become buttery, then increase smoke density until desired color is achieved.
Smacznego :wink:

Thanks for the recipe. Its almost how I do beer-can chicken.
For those of us that are wondering what "Apium" is, Check this and then we will all know.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably needs more time on the grill! :D

I made the smoky aromatic chicken today. Brined for 18 hrs, stuffed with Italian parsley and celery and cooked in water bath this morning and smoked for about 3 hours with cherry. Absolutely delicious. While I was late in getting to it, better late than never!

Hi,
Seeing that everybody on the forum that make this chicken recipe thought it was wonderful,
I definitey must try this recipe although celeriac(apium root) seem to be unavailable at the moment here.
Can I scale the Cure #1 down for a smaller amount of water for brining 1 chicken.
This coming week end it will be on the menu.
Thanks for the recipe.
Regards,
Jan.

The brine is .38 ounce cure #1 and .76 ounce salt per U.S. pint of water. I believe that you can reduce the salt but not the cure(nitrite)

Yes, if you do it proportionately.
