My husband used to call this Drunken Chicken- he and his buddies did it on the grill at football tailgates. I decided to try Jeff's version yesterday for my family in the smoker.
As an aside, if anyone needs some rain in their area, please call me. Once I set my smoker up, you are guaranteed precipitation :(
I brined two birds for about 3 hours and then dried them off completely, used a wee olive oil to make the rub stick, and smoked them with apple and hickory wood (because that's what I had on hand) at around 240 just under 4 hours.
I didn't get good pictures of the carved breasts, and, of course, my family devoured it all. LOL
Here are some pics of my day:
