    Smoking in standard grill?

    I have the Amazen pellet smoker grid, not the tube. These work by themselves, you don't need heat from the grill to get them going.

    1st smoke on the gosm

    I would not recommend eating the chicken skin in the first place, but if it's presentation you're looking for, there are several ways to improve the skin. Make sure it's oiled so it can crisp up from the outside. Use a rub both inside and outside the skin. Keep the bird toward the top where it...
