Instructions
- Fill your smoker with wood chips. I like to use applewood or cherrywood for this smoked chicken recipe. Leave the water pan dry (this helps the chicken skin get crispy). Begin preheating your smoker to 300F.
- Take your chicken out of the packaging and remove giblets if that hasn't been done already. Use a paper towel to pat the skin dry. Place uncovered in the refrigerator while the smoker heats up and you prepare the rub.
- Take all of the rub ingredients and mix them in a bowl until well combined and there are no clumps of spices.
- Coat the chicken all over with the rub. (You will have enough for 2 chickens.)
- Place your chickens in the smoker and cook for 2-3 hours, until the temperature registers 165F at the thickest part of the chicken's leg.
- Remove from the smoker and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with Alabama White Sauce.
