Doing a bacon wrapped chicken breast. Like I said in another thread, I do grill. This is a smoked chicken breast wrapped in bacon. Make a lattice bacon wrap. Season the chicken breast to your taste ( we do rosemary sprigs and other seasonings ). Wrap the breast. Start the smoker. I smoke it at 225 deg to an internal temp of 150 deg. It comes out most and tender. Good eats. We make it last through the week for lunch and dinner. And I'm still holding my weight.

I have 20lbs of pork butt and 17lbs of beef brisket in the smoker right now. Maybe we can swap tastes sometime
 
Here's my favorite chicken recipe.


4 Chicken breasts

1/4 cup cream cheeze

2 oz. extra sharp cheddar

dash of Frank's Red Hot (probably more like 4 dashes)

2 Jalapenos, seeded and thinly sliced

Mash all this up together, cut a pocket in the largest part of the chicken breasts and stuff the mixture in.

Grill on patio grill until the chicken is done.

Eat at your own risk
 
That Chicken and bacon looks AWESOME!!

I tried smoking with all my might and decided its a talent like being able to run fast and not something I could learn.

But I did do a chicken on the BBQ this weekend but .. my own way. I love to grill especially through the warm weather .. just never successful at long term smoking. A ding on my man card to add to the other dings :(

However .. the chicken just fell off the bone!!IMG_20210320_124725615.jpg

In my experience, trying to cook chicken on a smoker long term just dries it out. Usually, I'll put it in low and slow for 30-40 minutes to get a nice smokey flavor, but then I raise the temperature to 350ish and cook it as if it were in an oven. If you use a Traeger style smoker, it's kind of a no brainer. Also, cooking a whole chicken on a smoker is best down spatchcock in my opinion.

You guys are making me hungry!

Dang that's alot of meat. I tried doing a brisket, but it turned out tough. We have another one in the freezer I'm going to give another shot at.
 
Did some smoked hot dogs today. Friggn so easy and the flavor was amazing.

Cross cut the dogs. Did a jalapeño rub to give it a kick. Put them on the smoker at 220 degrees for 1hr 15min with pecan wood.

Put them on the buns with cheddar cheese, mayo, cut onions and cut jalapeños.

Good stuff.

Pics or it didn't happen!

I'm not a huge hotdog fan, but you're intriguing me with the thought of smoking some. Here are some trout that we smoked up last week. Of all the things I put on the smoker, I think this is the most satisfying.

I gave my smokers the holiday off. It's too damn hot to babysit my vertical wood fired unit, and I refuse to be so lazy as to use the Traeger on this glorious American weekend of sacrifice. Pretending to do the hard stuff while it's on bluetooth doesn't feel right. Maybe it's the new "American", but I gotta draw the line somewhere.

So, I'll just be lazy inside with the A/C turned low...while the contractors finish up my bathroom remodel. LOL

Happy 4th!
