I know what the searches say, but what do the FDB posters have to say?

What are some easy and smart things to do for this? Length of time, size of bird,

I hate poultry but the SO wants it done, so I am taking it on the chin.

I was going to be lazy and just use Slap Ya Mama as the "rub" but what are some necessary items to prep the bird? Of course without buying a bunch of ingredients.

Ive done the wood chip packets on the gas grill and I think it's a waste of time. It might just be a mental thing but I dont think its the same.

I always brine bone in chicken when I put them on the grill. Water, sugar, salt, some vinegar i have with tabasco peppers in it(along with some peppers), pepper and some random herbs. Brining is a must imo

If you dont want to buy a bunch of ingredients for the rub, just buy a premade one from the store. Get the rub all under the skin on the meat.

I have a 4 burner Char-Broil Infrared gas grill and recently discovered how to smoke on it. Get a stainless steel bowl (dog bowl) and put it all the way on one side. Remove the grating anf plce the bowl directly on the fire. Fill it up with wood chips. I bought a bag of pecan and another of cherry from Lowes. Get the bowl really hot before you put your chips in. They will start smoking faster. Put your chicken on the other side of the drill (indirect).

I grilled some thighs a while back, smaller size ones, and they went for abbout 2 hours. Coated with Baby rays at the end and were great. You wont get the "full" smoke flavor from cooking on a smoker, but it is a good alternative and the smokiness does come through.
