Ingredients
• 1 kg (2 lb) whole frying chicken or chicken parts
• 30 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
• 3 ml (1/2 tsp) each dried thyme, sage pepper and oregano (or substitute
herbs of your choice)
• 2 ml (1/4 tsp) garlic powder
• pinch of cayenne powder
• pinch of allspice powder
Preparation
Rub chicken all over with olive oil. Mix together spices and sprinkle over
chicken. Place chicken or chicken pieces on the smoker racks.
Smoking Method
Place chicken in the Bradley Smoker. Hot smoke chicken using Pecan flavour
bisquettes for approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Using a meat thermometer,
continue cooking on high until chicken is completely cooked. The whole
chicken should take approximately 4 to 4-1/2 hours, about half way it should
be rotated for even cooking.
To Serve
Serve with BBQ sauce on the side for dipping. For an authentic Southern meal
consider also serving rice and beans, or a jambalaya, along with some
Southern-style greens, yams or fried green tomatoes and, of course cornbread
or biscuits. Finish up the meal with a pecan pie or a peach cobbler for a
true Southern touch!
