I spatchcocked and injected the chicken with Tony Chachere’s Cajun injection. Seasoned with Weber’s New Orleans Cajun seasoning. I smoked it on the Mak 1 star on the smoke setting for 1 hour then cranked the temp up to 400 deg until done. Thanks for looking!

That chicken looks so good. What kind of flavor does the Tony's injection add to it?
 
Spatchcock is my preferred whole (half) bird cook.
Do you separate the skin and remove the backbone from cavity side to keep the 4 flaps together?

I take a pair of kitchen shears and just just cut along each side of the spine and then remove the spine. I then make a small incision at the top of the breast plate. At that point I can just take my hands and crack the breast plate until it lays completely flat.
