That chicken looks awesome! Do you guys/gals use extra wood for smoke? If so, what type and how much? Last time, I did chicken, I added about 3 ounces of apple wood to fire and that worked pretty well. What do you guys use?

They came out wonderful! I hung them with the legs down, basically the same way Noah shows in his video except I used two hooks because it was a whole chicken.

I bet those chickens were still juicy, though, even at that higher temp, SRA. Congrats on a successful whole chicken cook.
Did you hang the whole chickens or lay them on the grate?

Field Report: They two whole chickens came out great! They were on a little longer than planned due to an emergent event. 2.5 hours to a internal breast temp of 175. Someday I'll figure out how to post photos and upload the pics. Thanks for all of your help and reassurance!

I just finished a whole bird, halved. Came out great. I left it on for about 3 hrs and it was very good. The PBC ran a bit hot, so the meat was just a bit dry, but still excellent! Next time, I'm going to shoot for about an hour and forty-five. I'm really happy with my PBC. I did ribs last night for my first cook and they came out excellent.

I am interested to hear how they turn out. Can't wait to do a chicken.

Ok, I'm going to give it a shot and see how it turns out. I'm a chicken (ha) and will do them both the same way even though Huskee has a great idea about doing them two different ways for comparison.

Yeah.. what Huskee says! That is totally correct I think. For my turkey day turkeys I am planning on spatchcocking 2 smaller turkeys.
For the reasons that Huskee mentions it will cook faster, so keep your eye on it!
For half chicken just one hook per chicken... for a whole chicken, just hook it up somewhere around the neck (or where the neck was LOL) with 2 hooks.
