I think if I was going to cure & smoke a whole chicken or a half chicken, I would use the method Pops uses with Cure #1 Brine. Then I would hot smoke it just like a chicken that isn't cured.

I would only dry cure with TQ---Uniform parts separately, like Breasts or Thighs, or Drums.

When I do Chicken I use Pop's brine not salty at all

There ya go!!

Looks Great !!

I love doing that with bread, but often I use Hamburger buns, Hot Dog Rolls, and yesterday I used up a leftover Steak Hoagie Roll with Sauce, Cheese, Pepperoni, and some Oregano.

Great little Snack!!

Bear

Oregano sounds good.... going to add bell peppers next time also... garlic French bread also makes good platform
