This is how I would normally roll with my planned BBQ Chicken Dinner. Lately not a whole lot of normal going on with anyone thing except, I was wanting some of my favorite Chicken! So this is how I had to think outside the box to make it happen. I took my old Cold Smoker and turned it into a Hot Smoker for a few hours to get the job done.
.
This is what my Cold Smoker looks like 99% of the time when I am using it.
This is how I got the party Started!
Poor Boy Hot Smoker Mod!
Now it's time to GET-R-DONE, Poor Boy Style !
Outside trying to capture the Thin Blue Smoke! Aside from that I noticed my Mom's Garage needs Paint!
The Finished Product!
When I have time, I prefer to use a whole chicken in the 2 1/2 lb range and butterfly that Bad Boy open and soak in my Special Sauce over night. Then place the bird in a basket and start grilling while using the marinade as a basting sauce while the chicken is cooking to help keep it moist. If I am in a hurry and I don't have time to mess with a whole bird, Thighs are my 2nd choice.
IMO, The key to this chicken turning out perfect every time is how it is cooked to perfection. I have been making this very same BBQ chicken recipe for over 25 years, it's my absolute Favorite even over the other white meat
!
My making this type of chicken in the Smoker over the normal way I am used to making it way something I had no idea I would be able to do and still have it turn out perfect. The only thing that I noticed different was the skin wasn't as crispy as I am used to because of it not being cooked over an open fire. Aside from the skin texture and the #1 I added to my recipe, it was still a Winner Chicken Dinner!
