Smoking chicken breast

If you're still smoking chickens like you smoke brisket and pork butts, low and slow, you are missing out!

Find out how to smoke whole chicken that's done in almost half the time, and tastes twice as good!

For years I'd been smoking whole chicken in smokers running at around 225 degrees Fahrenheit, just like I smoked about everything else.

But a year or so ago I discovered that it's better to smoke poultry at a higher temperature.

After trying it myself, I wondered why I ever smoked chickens any other way!

There are definite benefits to smoking chicken (and other poultry) at 275 degrees and higher, and no drawbacks.

The chickens cook quicker and the skin gets crispy and browned, which adds another layer of flavor to the birds.

And even though the smoking time is shortened, the meat gets plenty of smoky flavor.

Poultry is put together differently than beef and pork, and doesn't require low temperatures and slow cooking to become juicy and tender.

I mean, weren't those beer butt chickens you grilled last summer tende
