Most people smoke chicken from 275 to 325,350...personally i go 275 to 300. It's not a low and slow meat. Your final target temp for poultry is 165, which means for a small piece like a breast you can take it out of the smoker maybe 162 or so and wrap/rest it for 15....it will climb easily to 165.
I'm getting ready to throw a bunch of breasts in the smoker -- it's cold, and well, it's meat in the fridge so it should be smoked! Did you just put a BBQ sauce on them or what? :)
I used a southwest rub and some pepper. Smoked it until it got to about 160 degree, then put bbq sauce on for the rest of the time. Very moist and tasty
