Planning on doing a couple spatchcocked chickens tomorrow. Going to smoke them at 325.
If I've got birds in the 3.5# range, any *rough* idea how long I should factor for cooking? I'm thinking it's not likely to go beyond 2 hours?
Yeah, should be less than 2 hours.
I normally get something around 3-4 pounds, but I actually just go ahead and cut it in half anyways, remove the backbone and breast bone.
Smoke it around 275* and then finish on high heat to crisp up the skin a bit. Takes 2 hours total probably, and I normally just leave it on and take my time with it anyways. Best way to smoke chicken, IMO. Beercan doesn't really do a damn thing but steam inside.
