How Do You Smoke Chicken on A Charcoal Grill?

When you cooking over direct heat you need to make sure you have enough fuel (hot coals) to cook whatever you’re cooking long enough. It’s the same thing with indirect heat, but you need a lot more fuel (hot coals) that you’ll burn at a lower temperature for a longer period of time.

Light your coals and set them off to one side of the grille. Put the grilling grate back in the grill.  Then, close the grill and adjust the vents to your desired cooking temperature. Our Weber grill has one, but, If your grill does not have a built-in thermometer you will need to buy one. Weber makes The Smart Grilling Hub that is compatible with any grill. 

Once your coals are to temperature, add your smoking chips. For Caleb’s smoked chicken recipe he used Hickory, but any hardwood will work.

And now you’re ready to smoke your whole chicken! Smoking meat on a charcoal grill will take some practice, but do not let it intimidate you!
