It was too nice of a day yesterday NOT to smoke, so I decided to do a small run of chicken quarters for supper. I tried a lesser brand I have never used before, and boy I won't ever make that mistake again. LOTS of fat, found some pin feathers, a few nasties around the back section. Tyson or Foster Farms from now on!!!
On with the show. The piece on the right, thats a big pocket of fat on the left side, not extra skin. And the red along the back section, looked like a heart. No worries, trim and clean up and they will be just fine.
Trimmed and hit with some Wishbone Italian Dressing:
A little rub and on the grate.
Ran them about 280 degrees for an hour and a half or so until they hit 165 IT:
Glazed, on the platter and ready to serve:
Overall not bad, but again not as good of result as I get when using Foster Farms or Tyson.
