Smoked chicken breast and fatty!

[BKING!]

Quick easy smoke today so nothing crazy but boy it was good.
Seasoned the chicken breast with
2 tbs coarse ground black pepper
1 tbs coarse ground kosher salt
1 tbs minced onion
1 tbs minced garlic

I did a light seasoning of the fatty with store bought bbq rub (saving my bps sweet money rub for ribs!)

Smoked at 225 deg for 1 hour and bumped the temp up to 300 deg to finish.

I know this may offend some hardcore charcoal users but every time I go back and forth between the kettle and the Mak I notice the flavor of the Mak is superior.

Burning wood is greater than charcoal + smoldering wood in my opinion anyway for flavor. I’ve always enjoyed eating off of pellet smokers and stickburners the most.

Looks like a good meal! Thanks for sharing.

No offence taken here. The chicken and fatty look good to me.

Point for sure

Looks good to me. Like you, my family prefers the flavor from my pellet smoker over other methods I've used in the past. Just personal preference I suppose.
