General Information
This large capacity Meadow Creek chicken cooker trailer lets you quickly and easily grill large amounts of tender, juicy mouthwatering chicken for crowds. Highly recommended as a fundraiser tool for fire departments and charities or for feeding large crowds at public auctions, fairs, and weddings.
This commercial-grade BBQ96 Chicken Cooker is charcoal-fired. Holds 120 lbs. of bone-in chicken (3 cases of legs and thighs).
The Chicken Cooker Difference
Serve up the tender, crispy chicken your guests crave with ease. Meadow Creek’s innovative sandwich grates allow you to flip an entire rack of meat with one hand, and the durable stainless steel construction ensures long-lasting performance without rust concerns.
Purpose-built for perfect barbecue chicken, these grills excel with sausages, burgers, steaks, potatoes, and more. The carefully designed grate-to-fire distance addresses the two biggest chicken-cooking challenges: drying out over direct heat and rubbery skin from offset smoking. The result is golden, juicy chicken every time—and an easier way to master all your favorite grilled dishes.
Chicken Cooker Airflow
Food is separated from the fire by vertical distance, similar to a traditional block pit. Air flows through vents at the bottom sides of the pit and exits through the top, creating even heat and consistent smoke. Optional lids (standard on some models) provide ultimate control over flare-ups, making it simple to grill tender, juicy chicken with perfectly crispy skin every time.
