INGREDIENTS
- 5.88 lbs. whole chicken
- 1 orange
- Vegetable/olive oil/butter
- Salt
- Pepper
DIRECTIONS
- Clean and pat dry your chicken then rub inside and out with oil. Stuff pats of butter under breast skin.
- Salt and pepper.
- Stuff cavity with quartered orange. Don't stuff too tightly as it will lengthen your smokin/cooking time.
- We smoked with only a quarter cup of cherry wood chips because our smoker is well-seasoned. You can use any wood you like. Just remember if you are new to smokin start out with a small amount of wood. You can always add more on your next smoke.
- We also smoked a couple of potatoes too!
- Smoke at 225°F until the breast reaches an internal temp of 165°F-170°F. We always recommend using an internal thermometer. Smokin by time is imprecise and hit and miss.
- Most important tip: Always give yourself plenty of time!
