Yard Bird done right!

[cardsfan]

I think if you're smoking chicken any other way, you might be doing it wrong :-)
This method is money every time!
I spatchcock a whole chicken. Make an herb butter with one stick of butter, a drizzle of EVOO, fresh sage, thyme, and rosemary. Inject the breasts, thighs and legs, and pour the remaining butter and herbs over the outside. Season with your favorite chicken rub, (I use butt rub with a little Italian seasoning).
Smoke at 285-300 until IT reaches 165-170.
