Photos are a bit rubbish, sorry. I'd had half a bottle of Greek white wine by this point.
Anyway. I set the Kamado Joe up with one heat deflector so I had an indirect and a direct heat section.
Chicken marinaded in olive oil, red-wine vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper for a couple of hours. Then rested breast side down, in a roasting dish, on some baby new potatoes, quartered red onion, a head of garlic, some more salt, pepper and oregano, and some good olive oil.
Cooked over the indirect half of the Kamado for about 45 minutes then turned the chicken the other way up and cooked for another 45 minutes or so until the internal temp came up to about 70'C.
I took the chicken out of the roasting dish and moved it over the direct heat to give a little more colour and crispness to the skin then took it off and set it to rest (under a foil tent, but that's not shown here for obvious reasons).
While it was resting I made a Greek salad with heritage tomatoes, good Kalamata olives, good quality feta, an average quality cucumber and an entirely pedestrian red onion.
The potatoes continued cooking...
And then eventually everything came together on the plate. Served with a second bottle of Greek white wine (a mix of Moschofilero and Roditis grapes from Ocado, very nice).
Lovely summer variant of roast chicken.
