20 Sept Smokin' a chicken

OK today's test is a whole 2kg chicken.

I was going to do a beer butt chicken but this time round just going to do a smoked roast chicken.

After the beef ribs fiasco, I'm definitely going with a rub this time. Nothing's going into the smoker without being rubbed up goood first. Learned some valuable lessons from the first run. - the amount of water needed in water pan, not siting the smoker near a window, the amout of charcoal needed.

chicken rub:

garlic powder
onion powder
paprika (sweet)
lemon pepper
thyme
ground bay leaf
brown sugar
salt (tiny bit)

going to go under the skin, will add some softened butter too.
