Quick Brining Chicken

It works really good to brine a chicken for two hours before sprinkling it liberally with your favoritw low sodium(no salt) spice rub. I use 'Snuffy Rub', an all purpose Cajun rub or seasoning that I make. More on the Rub in a minute.

I use a Brinkman 5 in 1 smoker/grill. It is pretty good for slow cooking, but not very good for grilling. I use a wood chip box with mesquite chips that were soaked for an hour.

I slow cooked the 2 half chickens for 2.5 hours. Smoke during the last hour of cooking.

I used Trader Joes BBQ sauce with the juice of 1 lime and basted the chicken for the last 30 minutes. Let it rest toll this entry is done.
