Howdy folks,
I hope all of you are well this Saturday morning. I am planning on grilling / smoking chicken quarters and hope for some suggestions / recommendations. The knowns are:
1. It will be chicken quarters with the skin on
2. I will finish them off with homemade BBQ sauce. Not a Carolina-style, more of a ketchup-based, tangy
3. They will be smoked
Here are my questions:
1. Any well-known rub that I can get at a large chain or perhaps if you live in TX, one I can pick up at a Buc-cees? Interestingly, they have a decent selection and I will be driving by the one in Denton today. I've got a chili powder based rub (John Stage's) that I found on the internet and it is great, but was hoping to try something different. I see Ry use Desert Gold but I might have to hunt to find that
2. Any recommended wood to use? I regularly use mesquite for pork, beef and chicken, however I've read fruit wood is a good choice for chicken. I just want something different.
Thanks Friends!
Regards,
Bob / hansonb4
