Here is a pic of my chicken thighs, I brined them first , then olive oil and jeffs rub. They came out moist . I tried to use the AMNPS but couldn't get it to stay lit , so wound up using Hickory in the chip try every 30 minutes. I actually think I would have liked it smoked only for first hour, was too smokey for my taste loading hickory in there ever half hour for 2.5 hours.
