Pollo asado is one of my all time favorite foods to eat. As a matter of fact I don’t know ANYONE who doesn’t love a perfectly cooked pollo asado. And in this video we’re gonna show you how most restaurants cook it and my favorite way to cook it in the backyard. We’re gonna spatchcock two birds – one with and one without the backbone and we’re also going to split one bird in half, which is the traditional Texas style pollo asado.
Now here’s a pro tip – the secret to perfect cooking is fire control, especially in open fire cooking. And the second pro tip – always use a meat thermometer for perfect, juicy chicken. Don’t listen to the keyboard haters that say they don’t need a meat thermometer for perfect cooking, the reason they’re typing is because they’re still chewing their overcooked dried out chicken! As long as you have a good recipe, good cooking technique and fire, your family and friends will love your barbecue. Now let’s get fired up and grill some pollo asado.
