General things when we put chicken in the smoker

Finally the fun part. Put the whole chicken in the smoker. If your smoker vents are adjustable, open them to about 50%-75% of the way open and try to position them over the top of the chicken. This will help draw the smoke towards the chicken before then escaping the smoker.

Check your chicken about once every hour but ensure not to check your chicken more than this. Doing so will risk losing too much heat from the smoker and drying out the bird
