Picked up two chickens to smoke. Spatchcocked them. Brined them overnight in the Slaughterhouse Brine. Rinsed in the morning then set in the fridge to air dry on a rack. 4 hours prior to cook I rubbed with EVOO and two different rubs then back in the fridge to dry.

Smoked at 275-300* for 4 hours. (little bird was 3.5) with two chunks of mesquite on the drum. Skin was not rubbery at all. A lot better than the last time I did quarters. I still decided to throw it under the broiler for a few minutes. Pretty happy with the results. Shredded one with the intention of some tomatillo enchiladas. 

Smoke on!
