This is a great resource that explains how to select, prepare, brine, and smoke chicken on a competition level.  I received permission from the original author to add it to our wiki, and I'm so grateful for that!  The brine recipe is awesome -- I've used it several times.  So, check it out the next time you feel like smoking some chicken!

Here's the link to the wiki article: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/wiki/how-to-smoke-chicken-competition-style
 
Really?  Only 6 views including me in 3.5 hours?

You guys really don't like chicken, do you?
 
Uh, take a look at your time submissions.  You're up and about when many of the rest of us are still trying to sleep, especially us left coasters.  I've done my years of mid shifts and working into the wee hours.  Now that is all behind me.  Bet you get a bunch of replies and views now that the rest of the world has woken up.

cool, man, don't forget the Q-view!

The site owner at 3men was VERY COOL to let me copy that entire page and put it in our wiki!  Here's the email exchange that we had:

Hi -

I just wanted to thank you for the competition chicken page on your site.  The brine recipe is very good, and I've linked to it several times whenever people ask about brining chicken over at SMF ( http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/ ).

We're getting new forum software at SMF that will include a wiki.  With your permission, I would like to include the information from that page in the new wiki citing you as the source, of course.  I didn't see any copyright information on the site, but I wanted to ask you if it would be OK anyway because that's just the right thing to do.

Of course, I invite you to join us over at SMF -- it's a highly active forum with members whose skills range from novice to professional.  Some of the members are even competition judges.  Note that I'm not affiliated with the site in any way -- I'm just a proud member (my username there is "mythmaster").  The forum is down right now while the new software is being installed, but it should be back up this evening.

Again, I want to thank you for the competition chicken page on your site.  It has been extremely helpful to me and others, as well.

Bret

Hi Bret,

Thank you for your email and for the compliments on the competition Chicken. I do not spend a lot of time on the website any more, but had hoped to do a similar write up for each of the 4 KCBS competition meats and have still not completed that!

Please feel free to post the information on the wiki. Thanks for asking. I put the site together in order to share information with others and not as a commercial site. So the more people benefit from it the happier I am !

Regards

Grant

Thank you, Grant!

I have posted the page in its entirety to the wiki and linked back to your home page, of course.  I don't think that you have to be a member of SMF to see it, but here is the link: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/wiki/how-to-smoke-chicken-competition-style

I had some trouble with fonts, but I'll get that worked out later.  The main thing is that the info is out there.

It was very generous of you to share this info with me and let me copy it.  I just can't tell you how grateful I am!

Thank you so very much-

Bret
