Teez, Your my idol....lol..Dang that looks good.
Could not decide what to cook this weekend until I saw the link to your sausage stuffed chicken breasts--man do they look good.Chicken is a snap! just have a good thermometer and you should have no problems. You can even get adventurous with it and it still comes out perfect as long as you cook to temp.
Here's a couple I did.

I am new to smoking.... Trying to smoke boneless breasts and can't seem to get them above 160. They seem to be stalling. Any thoughts or advice?Chicken is a snap! just have a good thermometer and you should have no problems.

Thanks... I guess is was surprised by the stall. The chicken gets to 150 to 155 fairly fast and then just kinda stalls. If that's normal I am OK.I would probably finish them on the grill. Depending on how you're smoking them(bacon wrapped? stuffed?) they run the risk of drying out if you leave them in the smoker while riding out the stall. It may be considered cheating but if it were me I'd throw them on the grill for a few minutes since they've probably already picked up enough smoke. Just my humble opinion.
