HOW TO SMOKE A CHICKEN - VIDEO

HOW TO SMOKE A CHICKEN

Ingredients:

Hickory wood - soaked in water for one hour
Charcoal - I use +Kingsford
Granulated Garlic
Sea Salt
Pepper
Seasoned Salt
Chili Powder
I used cooksafe rubber bands to secure the legs.
I also cut off all of the excess skin, fat and tail.
I also rinsed my chickens
Sprayed them with a little olive oil before putting the seasonings on.  

Prepare your smoker and your chimney starter.  If you do not know how to use a chimney, how to make a foil pan nor do you know how to prepare a smoker (I use a +Weber Kettle), you might want to purchase my video on How to Smoke Pulled Pork. (Link below)

I stoked my fire with additional coals twice during the 2 hour cook.  Some smokers cook hotter, so make sure you are checking to see if the chicken is done periodically.  You check by putting a thermometer (I use a digital) between the breast meat and the leg (do not touch a bone).  You want poultry to be at 165 degrees.

HOW TO MAKE A POT ROAST

 

HOW TO MAKE A POT ROAST

This is a complete step-by-step video on how to make a pot roast.  I used a chuck roast, but this method stands for any cut of meat whether it be beef or pork.

Except, when I use pork, I sometimes use chicken bouillon; or, if I want it to taste a little smoky, I will use ham bouillon.

Ingredients:

1     2-3 Pound Chuck Roast

Seasoned Salt

Pepper

Granulated Garlic

Sea or Kosher Salt

1/3 Cup Olive Oil

1 Heaping Tablespoon of Coconut Oil

2 Quarts Water  

1/3 Cup Beef Bouillon

1/4 Cup Kitchen Bouquet (Optional)

1 to 2 Large Onions - Cut into large sections

1 to 2 Carrots per person

1/3 Head of Cabbage per person - or the entire head if you want left-overs

1 to 2 Red Potatoes per person

To Thicken Gravy:

3 Tablespoons of Corn Starch

3 Tablespoons of Water 

Season meat and brown in a skillet with the hot oil mixture on all sides.

Remove the meat and place into 8 quart pot.

Add onion, bouillon, Kitchen Bouquet.

Cover and simmer 1.5 hours.

Clean potatoes, carrots and cabbage and add to the pot.

Cook another 45 minutes to one hour. 

Remove all vegetables, meat and cooked onions.

Bring broth to a boil and add the cornstarch and water mixture making your gravy.

Serve.
