Cooking a brisket on a chicken bbq pit? Mon, 02/16/09 7:22 PM (permalink)

I would try this at home except that we're in the middle of winter here in Ohio. Has anyone tried a brisket on an open chicken bbq pit? My pit is approximately 2 ft. from the charcoal. It takes about 2 hours to cook a small half chicken depending on how hot the coals are. Thanks.

    I'm just up the road from you and I cook out on my Weber all winter long. But I can't imagine trying to do a brisket on an open grill.

      What's a chicken pit barbecue?  I sell barbecues and no one has ever called or asked for one by that name.

      I'd love a picture!

        Most of the one's I've seen are made by stacking concrete blocks to form a large pit. They have large metal grates on top to put the chickens on. They are used to cook several half chickens at once.

          Oh, I get the idea.  It's a homemade job.

          Thanks!
