My buddy Tom and I are smoking our first chickens.

Top: Olive oil and Famous Dave's Country Roast Chicken Rub.

Bottom: Olive oil and homemade BBQ rub with fresh chopped basil from my garden. Injected with butter and a teriyaki seasoning.

The finished product.
Temperature was too hot. Couldn't get the smoker below 350. Still was very moist. Lacking smoke flavor however. Mid 90's during the day and I didn't really have a place to put the smoker that was in the shade.

I think they look tasty.

Would you send those 90's south a little? My cooker is almost up to temp and hasnt had a fire in it in two weeks! :BDHorse: Damn, its hot !


BBQ is just smoke and beers!
Usually more beers than smoke.

Nothing I like more than to kick back with a Zima and a Virgina Slim reading 50 Shades of Grey with DCman (The Czar).

I hear ya S1, I kept trying to get the water trough filled but everything was evaporating before I could raise the lid. I finally just topped the bucket with a wire rack and had steamed veggies for a side dish :D Supposed to be 105 for the 4th, I'm gonna try some shrimp this time =))


If it can't be smoked .... try frying it. It that don't work, it's probably best just left alone
