    Best way to smoke chicken?

    The chickens turned out great by the way! I ended up smoking them at about 250-275 most of the way. Turned it up a little at the end but not much. They were done in about 3.5 hours, but I didn't start the flame until I had the chickens sitting on their thrones on the grill. It would have...

    Cool. And it does monitor the internal meat temperature?

    Thermometers

    It's a Masterbuilt propane bullet style all-in-1 type water smoker. It is never completely sealed. But I like to keep the vent on top closed all the way most of the time.

    Thermometers

    So with the digital thermometer you have to run a wire from the probe to a transmitter outside the grill? Like through the vent? So with the digital thermometer you can never close things up completely? Is that right?

    Best way to smoke chicken?

    This time I'm going slow and low. Most of those that will be eating won't eat the skin no matter what. But I may try the crispy skin next time, cause it sounds good to me!

    Thermometers

    Are there thermometers that you can put into the chicken and leave them there while it smokes? I hate opening things up and going through the time of poking an thermometer into places until I have a good read and losing all that heat and smoke. I would think that if I could just open it up...

    Best way to smoke chicken?

    I would think that a larger bird would take longer than a small one, but would 3 small ones take any longer than 1 small one?

    Best way to smoke chicken?

    Actually I have the 3 chickens on the smoker now. I injected the chicken then rubbed the injection juice all over (and under the skin and inside) then I put the rub all over (and under the skin and inside). Then I also put beer and cider vinegar in the water bowl and am using a mixture of...

    Best way to smoke chicken?

    What temp and for how long would you recommend (typically) smoking three 3.5 pound chickens using the beer can method? Just looking for a ball park here, I know all smokers and meats are a little different. I am using a water smoker btw (Masterbuilt propane).

    First timer - several questions

    I've also seen recommendations to use wine or beer instead of water (or added to water). Has anyone tried that? It sure sounds great!

    First timer - several questions

    Thanks everybody, everything turned out great, including what I thought was overcooked. I added apple juice and sauce to what I had smoked completely the night before and heated them up on the grill in foil. Then I took what I had smoked for 2 hrs the night before and smoked in foil for 1.5...

    First timer - several questions

    Well, I assumed the last hour of 2-2-1 was still for cooking, and I still need to apply the bbq sauce. It has only had the rub on it the first two parts. I had read that it isn't necessary to mop and you don't want to apply the sauce until pretty close to the end with a vertical water smoker...

    First timer - several questions

    Thanks Steve, Do you know if it is a bad idea to break up the 2-2-1? 2 hours last night, foil it put it in the fridge... 2 hours this morning in the foil, back in the fridge... finish off with the 1 hour this evening out of the foil just before eating? Even after just one smoking, I love it...

    Using the Masterbuilt 7-1

    Thanks keywesmoke, but I don't think that will help me (if I even have a problem) since my MB is propane. I think my chips wouldn't last but a few seconds! :-)

    Hello from Ohio

    Another beginner here. I've been doing some fairly serious grilling for several years now and decided to move on to smoking. Got a Masterbuilt 7-1 for my birthday and I'm trying it out now. I plan to do a lot of smoking since I just LOVE ribs and other smoked meats. I already posted some...

    Using the Masterbuilt 7-1

    A couple questions for anyone out there with a Masterbuilt 7-1... 1. There is a little hatch on the side, I assume so you can put chips in without opening the top. It seems a little cramped as the water bowl is only inches above the chip pan, so I can only add chips right by the hatch. I...
