Wow carbonated chicken sounds interesting. I lived on Guam back in 1970, when the locals put on a party for a wedding or such, the food was amazing!

When we were young studs(late 60's), we would go to the neighbours and steal a couple of chickens to roast over the "beer fire" out in the boonies of Saskatchewan. Best rooster that I have eaten!! Even the young ladies that graced our company enjoyed it. The ambience of a summer evening, the beer, the rooster, and the company of young ladies is a memory of mine that my kids will never have. It was smoke cooked over an open fire of poplar wood, and combined with the beer, was probably the best eats that any kid could ever have. The beer was good too!!

DLFL,
Thanks for sharing this recipe. This is far too delicious to have left it "buried" in another topic. So I moved it to "recipes from around the world" and gave it it's own title. More folks will see it that way. Again, thanks for sharing.

Best Wishes,

Under the heading of Filipino chicken I nomenate the favorite bar snack from the lorilea bar in Poro Point. Marinate a cut up chicken in soya sauce , vinegar and cooking oil. Skewer it on bamboo and grill over charcoal sell for fifty centavos per piece 1962 pasos 3:1 against the dollar.

I'm going to try the Philippines Grilled Chicken recipe as well.
Many years ago I had similar recipe (lost now) but using the brand "Stoney" Ginger Beer with other seasonings added.

We cut open and marinated a whole chicken, aptly called a "Flattie", and grilled it over the fire. No eating hardware required, just eat the chicken with your fingers (and from it being so good one had to take care not to bite one's own fingers)

Is this why they called it finger food

For tonight, I have some Turkey in the Brine to DLFL's Philippines brine recipe.

I am brining Turkey for a reason:- with Thanksgiving coming up and trying to find a different recipe, I chose this one.

More Updates tomorrow.

ssorllih,
I was there from 89-91 at Clark. My wife and son got out ten days before the big volcano eruption destroyed most of the area. I was already home on emergency leave and got orders while home.

Bubba,
How was the turkey?

Hi Dick,

The Turkey is excellent! Still juicy and I love the flavor of all the spices combined, before grilling I sprinkled a little all purpose seasoning on.

Because of my one-person household, I only brined and grilled a breast and 2 thighs, so I will have some tomorrow and the rest is for lunches next week.

Definitely what I'll do for Thanksgiving.

Regards
Ron
