Jaguar Shark, Chicken Breasts must be smoked longer than you think. Add 5 degrees to finish temps, and don't serve hot. Vacuum pack and freeze for later use.

 

I've got a Weber Smokey Mountain - that thing is a beast. Can do 12 Chickens at once ... takes about 5 hours for a perfect smoked chicken - I like making the top layer with a honey and Jack Daniels concoction and the bottom one a proper texan dry rub chilly .... damn. I quite often end up doing two chickens on the top grid and a pork shoulder in the bottom. Pork goes for at least 15 hours ... nice dry rub on the outside, and maybe hit it with apple juice on the inside. Spray with apple juice two or three times the last hour.

They also work well if you pickle (pekel) them in ice water, coarse salt, orange juice and sugar for about three hours. They just seem to retain their moisture so much better.

Thank's a million Riaan! The Weber Smokey Mountain is what inspired me to build my mini smoker in the first place; I had one a few years back when I was living over the water- and yes, that thing was a beast and a half!!!

So any old chicken breasts will work? No extra special prep needed? (read somewhere you have to pickle them in brine for up to 3 days in the fridge before smoking)
