I just cooked these babies yesterday and thought I would share with y'all.

2 Chickens (about 3 lbs each) / covered with EVOO & Tony Chachere Creole Seasoning (inside & out). Beercans had minced Garlic & Apple juice (Beer was only for me :). Chickens had half an Apple stuffed in the neck. Put Chickens onto Beercans & into holders then, into a foil pan and spritzed with Apple juice.

                                                      ...put foil pan with Chickens onto top grill level of Smoker and put on the Smoker top.
