    I think if you're smoking chicken any other way, you might be doing it wrong :-) This method is money every time! I spatchcock a whole chicken. Make an herb butter with one stick of butter, a drizzle of EVOO, fresh sage, thyme, and rosemary. Inject the breasts, thighs and legs, and pour the...

Start with boneless, skinless chicken thighs, sprinkle both sides with your favorite chicken rub, half or quarter jalapeños length wise (half or quarter depending on heat...

    Chicken skin help.

    When I smoke chicken thighs, they are skinless and boneless, and wrapped in bacon! Awesome every time. So today, I decided to smoke some wings and thighs with skin and bones. They turned out delicious, but the skin is inedible. So tough, I can't chew through it. I thought it was crispy, but...

    Brisket, to wrap, or not to wrap? That is the question!

    I'm going to smoke a 12.5 pound whole brisket this Sunday. I am looking for ideas! What rubs do you prefer, and who wraps their brisket  and at what temp? Who doesn't? I want a good bark, so I am a little hesitant on wrapping. So, let's hear it!!
