The entries are:
1. Whole chicken rubbed the night before and smoked for 5 hours on the chargrill. Veggie skewers alongside also done on the smoker.
2. 1/2 Lemon pepper rotisserie chicken, bacon cheddar macaroni salad, Italian cut green beans.
3. At least a dozen chicken wings, multiple quarters and bacon wrapped chicken breasts were found on the smoker and around this property. We're all in shock right now. The worst of it was found on a old stump out back with blood and sauce splattered everywhere. The assailant left a selfie of the weapon!!! The maniac ate smoked corn on the cob picked just down the road with the chicken.... and he obviously cleaned out the fridge of beer. No one is safe! Lock your chicken coops!
4.Chicken roulade ,bacon wrapped. Filling of sun dried tomato, feta & spinach. Sauce of reduced chicken stock, white wine, shallots, pepper flakes and garlic. Sliced tomato with sea salt, buttered and salted asparagus.A puree of smoked sweet potato and caramelized onion with cream and butter..
5. Peach Smoked Boneless Chicken Breast on a bed of Baby Bok Choy,with Chicken Lo-Mein I could not find the Chow Funn Noodles to make what I wanted (Hawaiian Noodle dish). De Boned the 2 breast keeping the skin in tact on one of the breast,wrapped it around and smoked W/Peach chunks. Cubed the meat from the other breast for Lo-Mein stir fried with all the veggies.

7. Smoked Chicken Phiily CheeseSteak
Hickory smoked and then seared on the flat top chicken covered with a onion, sweet pepper, and jalapeño pepperonata.
