Hi guys. I threw together a brind last night and put the chicken in for 12 hrs. This morning I rinsed it, let it dry the made sauce of italian dressing, peanut oil and various spices and brushed it on. then filled the cavity with sliced up lemon and limes. Going to smoke for 2 hrs @ 220* with Maple and then leave in untill an internal temp of 170*f. Never done a chicken befor, so we will see how it turns out.Will post back when I pull it out.

Good to see ya _Bear_.
Should be a moist chick.
With the patina inside that smoker, it's hard to believe you haven't tried a chicken yet. I guarantee it won't be the last ;D
2.5 hrs in, internal temp 120*

Suprisingly well. The meat had a vey light/mild citrus taste to it. It was my sister's idea and it works well. I have reformed my sister and one brother and they both own Bradlys now as well LOL. Still wworking on my oldest brother, but he does not visit often, but next time I will put on a spread.
Heck Yeah that looks awesome!
That's a great looking bird. Very nicely done.
Great looking Yardbird Bear!!
Looking at the top of your S/G, it is time my friend. Time to open that bad boy up and clean it out. I had one that looked similar even started having problems feeding pucks until I cleaned it.

I have gotten into a habit of "Dusting" my pucks before entry to help with the loose wood chips.

Is this just a matter of blowing off any loose bits on the pucks?

Pretty much
Well, it is raining and snowing here, so that means no work untill it dries up or freezes up, so I think I will clean up that smoke generator. Thanks Tenpoint5
