Smoked wings on Saturday for a derby party. B+. The smaller ones were a slightly overdone. Removed the water pan and smoke-roasted them. The skin was nice and crispy.
The dry rub I made worked well. Chili powder and dark brown sugar were the main 2 ingredients, but I added a lot more. I was going for a sort of BBQ potato chip sweet, salty and spicy rub. I thought it would have more heat than it did.
I made 36 and they were gone in 10 minutes, so they must've been pretty good.
Smoked 2 fryers yesterday. B+.
My marinade sucked, didn't add much flavor at all. I was going to go with a store bought mojo criollo but Kroger was out, so I ended up just mixing salsa verde, olive oil, a lemon and a lime. I only had time to marinate for 3 hours so that probably had a lot to do with the weakness of the flavor.
That was a lot of chicken for just me, my skinny ass wife who eats like a bird and a 4 and 2 yr old. Looks like chicken nachos tonight and smoked chicken gumbo tomorrow.
