Drunk Chicken

So, while mowing, I decided that I was not busy enough and smoked a chicken.  I placed my dry rub under the skin and all over the entire bird.  Results were mixed for me.  I'm going to try Dr. Pepper next time instead of beer.  I used an instant meat thermometer instead of the iGrill.  Maybe after they get it working reliably I'll go back to it, but the instant worked almost as well.  Total cooking time was 2.5 hours and I used four pieces of hickory (fist size).  Could have used one more I think.

The pictures below are from zero to two hours and thirty minute increments.

The yard looks great and I even fixed the side yard where Jen went "Muddin after Midnight".
