We would actually marinate the chicken for more than a day sometimes, depending on how busy that week was in the kitchen. But it was always a hugely popular meal! We always planned on a few extra guests on Thursdays.

While Dr. Baker worked in Ithaca, the chicken's venue has been the State Fair since he began it in the 1940's. As a recent alum, you would not have found him at Cornell; Baker retired in 1989 and died in 2006 .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-46794643191004517452012-06-25T19:41:53.532-04:002012-06-25T19:41:53.532-04:00I've been brineing my grilled chicken for year...I've been brineing my grilled chicken for years in a simple brine of water, kosher salt and a little sugar. I like that this brine uses poultry seasoning. The chicken was marinated for about 9 hours and I grilled it mostly by the indirect heat method on my weber. It was tender and juicy, but, even though I only used 2 tablespoons of salt instead of 3, it was still just a bit too salty for me. I'll adjust accordingly next time. By the way, even though I live in Western New York, I've never heard of Cornell Chicken. Glad to meet it's acquaintance.

While grilling this stuff smells as delicious as it tastes.<br /><br />I have used boneless chicken breasts both times, once with about a 4 hour marinade and the other with about 8 hours. While I might cut the salt just a little the longer marinade times are essential to appreciate this dish. While I might not go the full 24 hours with boneless breasts the longer marinade times are superior. I found the 4 hour marinade to be just barely adequate and no where near as tasty as the 8 hour marinade.<br /><br />Amazing dish and dead simple.Food Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11210376511289923939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-70585248555537557952010-05-19T23:04:12.181-04:002010-05-19T23:04:12.181-04:00Cornell Chicken with a 5 hour marinade time, grill...Cornell Chicken with a 5 hour marinade time, grilled on a Big Green Egg: FABULOUS!

I put the marinade together at 6A: and BBQ'd at 4PM so it was about 10 hours. I also used the whole batch of marinade on 4 small roasters (3-1/2 - 4 lbs each)cut in half with the backs removed. The birds filled the surface of my Weber Genesis gas grill and I did have to move the meat around for even cooking some. After an hour of turning and basting, they were done and just terrific. I made an additional 1/2 batch of sauce for basting and it worked out perfect.<br /><br />Your demonstration of using a blender I found to be much better than the first time by hand. The oil gets emulsified and incorporated much better with the blender. The poultry seasoning makes it a very aromatic baste.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04259415757357845045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-67605453920910508392010-05-03T10:12:11.612-04:002010-05-03T10:12:11.612-04:00Your recipe calls for "poultry seasoning"...Your recipe calls for "poultry seasoning" just what is poultry seasoning.
