SIXTEEN SPICE CHICKEN - MESA GRILL

Steps:

• In a large vessel, place water, 1/4 cup kosher salt and 1/2 cup brown sugar in a gallon of water. Dissolve well and add a fresh chicken or it can be added completely frozen. Cover with foil and allow to brine for at least 2 hours for a fresh chicken in the fridge or 4-8 hours for a frozen chicken on the counter.
• Pull chicken from the brine, rinse under cold water and dry well. Discard the brine.
• Combine the spices in a medium bowl. Note that this will make a lot of spice rub and you will not use it all. Store leftover spice rub in a tightly sealed jar and store in the freezer.
• Brush chicken with olive oil and rub 3 tablespoons of the spice mixture over the entire bird and inside the cavity. You may find that you want to add more of the rub after cooking and serving. It's better to use a lighter hand in this step and add it at the table later until you find your perfect taste point. Place chicken on a plate and allow to sit in the fridge for an hour.
• Place the chicken on your rotisserie at 400 degrees @ 15 minutes per pound. Let go until just cooked through. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
• NOTES: I have a plastic dish pan that I use exclusively for brining chicken. I brine all my chicken no matter if I am frying it, roasting it, or making this dish. I cannot stand dry chicken! Most often I pull a whole frozen chicken from the freezer and put it in the brine, cover and go to work. If it's chicken breast or chicken pieces, I put it in a covered glass bowl and put it in the fridge. Pieces will not keep the brine cold enough for long periods. If you plan on hanging about the house, then you want to leave the chicken pieces out until they are thawed and then place in the fridge until you are ready to cook.

FRESH HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH BURNT ORANGE-BLACK PEPPER SAUCE AND GREEN ONION PUREE

Steps:

Truss the chickens and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the chickens on a rack and roast for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 and continue roasting for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest.
• Place orange juice in a medium saucepan and cook over high heat until reduced to a thick caramelized syrup. Place chicken stock in a medium saucepan and cook until reduced by 3/4. Add the stock to the orange juice and cook for 5 minutes. Whisk in butter and pepper. Season with salt to taste.
• Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Fold the puree into the mashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste.

SIXTEEN SPICE SMOKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine all spices in a bowl. Rub the entire chicken with the spice rub, including the cavity, and set aside while you prepare the grill.
• Set up a charcoal grill for indirect grilling. Throw the soaked wood chips on the hot coals. Place the cover on the grill and adjust the vents holes on the top and bottom to obtain the desired temperature (in this case it should be about 350 degrees F).
• Place the chicken on the rack of the grill opposite the coals and smoke until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, using an instant-read thermometer, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove from the grill, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 10 minutes before carving.
