Rated 3 out of 5 by Moelysol from Not for my family This was a change of pace but it wasn't a keeper for my family. I didn't care for the vegetable combination with the whole chicken.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Feta from Smoked Chicken Smoking chicken and duck are the way to go. Meat is moist and falls off of the bone. Smoked fish is also good. Highly recommend this form of cooking.
