We had a party back at the house after Jack's birthday party at Terhune Orchards. Some family got stuck in Delaware and couldn't make it, so we were going to have an awful lot of extra food, but fortunately some neighbors came by and helped out.
This was some bone-in chicken breasts that were marinating in Goya Mojo sauce for about 20 hours or so. Each one was quite sizeable, so it was nice to be able to have them spread out all over the grill without having to crowd them.
At least for a minute before I realised I have to cook them over indirect heat, so I pulled them towards the center and kept burners 1, 2 and 6 on. After about 45 minutes in, I kicked up those burners to high and threw on some Whole Foods burgers. Once all meat was done, some corn finished off the grilling. I then fired all burners to high for about 30 minutes, and was amazed at what burned off - at almost 700 degrees, it's pretty easy to clean up.
Once dusk hit, we all started counting bats. At least 50 came out, not only from where I suspected their access point was (which was supposed to be sealed already), but also from the fascia at the top of the chimney. Looks like we'll be spending every spring just patching up the holes until we're all sealed up. Ugh.
