First meal on the WSM

[bar-b-que blues]

Whole chicken... 4.5 lbs...Salt and pepper... Simple! I cut down a peach tree a year ago or so... So I figured why not! I love this smoker!

HAHAHAHA... The chicken looks so small on it! The temp was a bit lower than I wanted... Ran around 290 for most of it... Pretty sure I needed more coals... Oh well, next time!

Looks great. 

 

[bar-b-que blues]

Thanks Bama BBQ! Was delicious!

how long did you cook that for ?? at 290

 

[bar-b-que blues]

Oh I dunno... an hour and a half or something like that? I cooked till 170 degrees internal... Sooo good!

Chicken looks nice. Just curious if you put water in the pan or not...makes a big difference temp-wise

I'm pretty sure I did... This was quite a while ago... I love how the chicken tastes, but I'm a skin man... I have yet to get a good crispy skin... I have also since cooked at 350... still somewhat rubbery...
