Friday we got to try our first farm fresh chicken. We got a whole chicken through our CSA. It was 4 and 1/2 pounds at $3/lb, making it $13.50 for the whole thing. It came frozen and was in my freezer for a bit before we cooked it. I left it to defrost overnight. Timmy added some of my Aunt Maggie & Uncle Dave's Spice Rub to the outside of the chicken and cooked it 'beer can' style.
We also diced up the red potatoes and tossed them with some simple seasoning (salt, pepper, olive oil, parsley). June has a convenient grill basket and what belongs to June is also partially mine. I snagged it and we grilled our taters on the grill.
We also had some sweet corn from the CSA. We didn't get a chance to soak it, so we used the cheater method. Have you ever tried this? We took the silks off the corn, took a wet paper towel, wrap up the corn and then wrap the corn in aluminum foil. It tastes great and helps.
