1 3.7 lb chicken Salt and pepper
-------------------------------BASTING SAUCE------------------------------- 1/2 c Butter 1/8 c Lemon juice 1 ts Celery salt 1 ts Garlic powder 1 ts White pepper 1 ts Paprika 1 ts Onion
A great way to do chicken although I split it down the back and put it spread eagle on the rack. I have been using a recipe from The All-American Barbecue Book, one of the few recipes I haven't altered severly (at least mostly).
The last time I did it I split a 3.7 lb chicken and salt and peppered it first thing before firing up the Q and making the basting sauce.
Bring slowly to a boil and take off heat. I smoked it at 225 - 250 degrees for 4 hours. I basted it about every hour and also added a foil packet of mesquite chips to the coals (mostly mesquite with some Kingsford thrown in)
