Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 brined whole chicken, weighing around 1.5kg (3lbs)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Apple or cherry wood chips

Instruction

  • For a very basic brining method, check out my How To Brine Chicken article.
  • Preheat the Char-Broil Big Easy Smoker on the High setting and fill the smoking box with wood chips.
  • Wait for 10 minutes until the chips begin to smoke, then change the heat setting to Low.
  • Place the whole chicken at the bottom of the basket and place in smoker.
  • Close lid and cook until the chicken’s internal temperature is 75°C (165°F). This takes about 90 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the smoker and wrap the chicken in foil, letting it rest for about 20 minutes before eating.
