Followed this procedure with an electric smoker and it was delicious! Excellent when smoked with apple wood chips.

We are so glad that it worked for you! We may have to try it with apple wood!

Thanks, good information and it doesn't matter about the background. What a dumbass with nothing else to do, but criticize.

Mayo? Ughhh. A little oil *if* needed. Using latex gloves will help the rub adhere. The flavor from the mayo or mustard will dominate the bird.

I was surprised at the lack of moisture in the smoker. I either do beer can chicken or have a soup can with broth, apple cider vinegar and soy sauce to keep the meat moist. Also, not much if a dry rub, seemed a bit light for me. When sliced, it looked cook nicely IMO. The smoker itself looks built well and easy to operate.

That chicken looked way too dry.
