Herb rubbed, smoked Chicken

[chiefs smkhse]

Started by brining for 24 hours, rinsed, dried and coated with a wet herb rub.  Then I smoked them for 4 hours at 225.  Awesome!

Hi, 

I know this is from the summer but was curious on what you used for the rub for the chicken?  Also what wood would work best with the herbed chicken?  Thanks

I wish I could tell you that it was my secret recipe, but here's the link I used on-line:  http://bbq.about.com/od/rubrecipes/r/ble31107g.htm

If you brine, LEAVE THE SALT OUT of the rub recipe.  I use Hickory Natural Lump Charcoal and Apple wood chunks. This recipe is great on all poultry.  Enjoy!

Thanks for the link.  I tried some chicken today and used a lemon pepper blend and added some dried herbs....oregano and thyme
