Smoked Chicken Salad

2 Whole Chickens
6 stalks of Celery
1 bunch of green onion
1 Bell Pepper
2 Serrano Peppers or Jalapeños
1 Yellow Onion
3 Cloves of garlic
1 cup chopped Pecans
2 Lemons
2 cups of Mayo
2 tbsp of Butter
1/4 cup of pickle juice

Lightly season the chickens with olive oil and cajun seasoning
Smoke the chickens, breasts up, over Apple and Hickory wood, 300ºF for 2 hours

Chop the onion, garlic, bell pepper, celery, and serranos very small. Remove all of the bell pepper seeds and most of the Serrano seeds. Sauté the onion on medium heat in the butter, adding a dash of salt and stirring frequently until it starts to brown slightly. Then add the garlic and stir for 2 more minutes.

Shred the chicken and mix all the ingredients together, juicing the lemons over the mixture. Salt and Pepper to taste.

Refrigerate 2 hours before serving
