    Spatchcocked Chickens on WSM

    I’m just mixing some Cajun spice and garlic into some melted butter. Nothing fancy. I’ll post the results and measurements if it all works out lol!!

    Spatchcocked Chickens on WSM

    I'm going to finish them on my hot grill for about 20-30min. skin side down to crisp them up a bit.

    Spatchcocked Chickens on WSM

    I am making my own as I cannot find any Tony C's up here in Western Canada. Hopefully it'll be just as good.

    Spatchcocked Chickens on WSM

    Hey all, I'm smoking a couple spatchcocked chickens on my WSM 18 on Sunday. I'm planning on injecting the birds with creole butter and smoking with cherry wood at around 275* and I have a question for all the experts here: Do I fill my water pan or leave it empty?

    Whole Chicken Brine

    Sounds great!! Now all I have to do is find some of that stuff. Looks like it might be tough to find up on the west coast in Canada.

    Whole Chicken Brine

    That sounds delicious! Thanks for the reply! that's a method i may have to consider doing. Space and time is a concern for me so the brine method may not work out. I should have the space to marinade them over night though!

    Whole Chicken Brine

    Whole Chicken Brine

    Hey all, I hope I'm not beating a dead horse here, but I have a question regarding whole chickens and brining them. I'm planning on smoking two spatchcocked chickens this coming Sunday and I was wondering; Is it 100% necessary to brine these birds first? If I don't, what are the potential...

From what I've read, I should get rid of that pre-seasoning and re-season it with flax-seed oil. Is that the best thing I can do for it? What is...

    Newbie Question regarding Ribs

    So it turns out my buddy is bringing up a Butt (unsure of the size, he's going to weigh it today) and I was wondering: Since both ribs and butts get smoked at 225*F can I put the butt on and then a few hours later put the ribs on? I have a WSM 18.5 and I was thinking if I put the butt on the...
