Chef Husband had been marinating a lovely set of chicken breasts for 24 hours. When the time arrived to get cooking, he opted to smoke them in our 55-gallon drum smoker, also known in our family as the chicken barrel. Normally he would hang half-chickens on hooks; however, hanging just the breasts, without the additional structural support of the bones and skin, posed a problem.
Definition of resourceful: Having the ability to find quick and clever ways to overcome difficulties.
Mr. Resourceful came up with a solution. Taking an old broken bath caddy he found out in our garage, he created a sturdy hammock to hang on the hooks in the barrel.
Now that’s resourceful!!!
Until next time...
Culinarily Yours,
Mrs. Chef (Christa)
