Today I am smoking up some Chicken Breasts to make pulled chicken.  We like to do this and freeze some of the pulled chicken to use in some recipes.  I am also doing a turkey breast that I will slice to use in place of store bought deli meat.

I did not brine either of these meats, I chose to inject a mixture of chicken stock, Pickapeppa Sauce, and some apple cider vinegar.

I used my BBQ rub #7, (a low sodium rub creation) on the chicken and I used my turkey rub (Penzy's poultry seasoning, garlic, onion powder, paprika)  for the Turkey Breast.

I also take the back bone and neck from the turkey and smoke those as well.  I save these over time, once I have a bunch I through them in a stock pot with water, bay leaf, 1/4 cup vinegar, and simmer on low for 2 days.  It creates a great stock for soups, or to cook pasta and rice with.  The flavor profile that it adds to pasta is wonderful.

Today I am using the stick burner with Apple, Peach, and a bit of Pecan.

More pics to come!

Thanks Gary.

I assume the sauce you are talking about is the Pickapeppa. Yes it is a unique sauce that brings some great flavor to poultry.  I have also made a glaze with it in the past.

I sure think it does, it adds a great depth of flavor.

Tough stuff to find though.... I used to get it back in Wisconsin, but finally found a grocery store down here that carries it.

Smoke ON!
