A Delicious Smoked Chicken!

For his birthday a couple of weeks ago, the Brights brought Tommy a smoker. So we decided to try it out on Sunday and it worked like a charm. You place your chicken (or whatever it is you're cooking) in the basket and then lower it down into the smoker. Two hours later, voila! a delicious smoked chicken. As you can see, we decided to go whole hog and cook roasted vegetables on the grill to go with it.

Here's the uncooked chicken ready to go into the smoker...

Cooking...um, I mean smoking...

Checking for internal temperature...we don't want to eat an uncooked chicken! (Yes, by this time we needed a little sustenance)...
