    1st crack at wings on the WSM

    My son was sick today so I had to stay home with him. I decided since I didn’t get a chance to smoke anything over the weekend, that I’d give some wings a try on the WSM I’ve been learning over the last couple months. As this was last minute, I decided to just work with what I had as far as...

    Whole chicken stuck at 143° HELP!!!

    Ive had a whole chicken in the smoker now for about 5 hours. 6.2 lb bird. Smoker at 225°. Chicken hasnt budged from 143° in over an hour. I did brine it over night last night. Is the extra moisture causing a "stall" of some kind? I know chicken isn't supposed to do that as it doesnt have much...

    Whole chickens with Disco's guidance

    I started thawing 4 chickens a few days ago, figuring I'd have a plan by this weekend. Nope. Thankfully, I got a few tips from Disco (Preacher Man, I'm making pulled chicken tacos your way next time around). I combined the glaze and dipping sauce from his Cambodia Chicken with his Piri Piri...

    Tandoori Chicken Wings

    I really like Tandoori dishes when I go out for Indian food. The spices are delicious. I would like to get something similar at home. This introduces two problems. First, I don’t have a tandoor. These wonderful ovens are highly specialized and I have been given clear instructions from a higher...

    Chicken Leg Quarters (Hickory Smoked)

    Chicken Leg Quarters (Hickory Smoked) I don’t usually do these, but Mrs Bear got ‘em on a good sale. I still prefer individual Thighs & Drums with the Emphasis on Thighs, but these were pretty good joined at the knee. I took these all to at least 165° IT, and Mrs Bear added some Spanish Rice to...

    Secret to good skin in the smoker

    I smoked 2 half chickens in my Dyna-Glo smoker. I brined the meat overnight with an standard salt/sugar brine augmented with magic dust rub mix. The meat turned out fantastic! Smokey, juicy, and tender. Simply delicious. The skin, however, was another story. It was tasty but tough as shoe...

    Koss Sauce Chicken

    As noted in my prior post, I had friends over and made two chickens. I experimented with one but the second bird was done with about as basic a smoke as you could with a rub and a sauce. For the rub, I used a Creole Spice Rub: 18 ml (1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon) paprika 10 ml (2 teaspoons)...

    Chicken for a wedding.

    Hello, I'm being asked to do a wedding this Fall for 200 people. They want me to do chicken thighs and macaroni and cheese. I don't have all the details but I'm assuming there is going to be other meat and sides offered. How much food should I plan for?

    To brine or not to brine

    Hey guys, I was planning on making Jeff's bacon wrapped chicken legs this weekend. The recipe doesn't say anything about brining, but in other places on the website he says to always brine chicken. Does this apply only to whole chickens and chicken quarters? Anyone made this before? Thanks
