First Electric Smoking


2 Whole Chicken Fryers 5 Lbs. each with sprinkled rubs (1st time electric smoking)
½ hour preheat 225* F with 2/3 filled RO water in pan and vent closed. 

I smoked at 225*F for 3 ½ hours with mesquite dead/dried twig pieces at beginning. I added mesquite again at 1 hour and 2 hours into smoke. The chickens were done and tender, but not falling off the bone. They could have gone 4 hours or more. (Did not have thermo-probe for checking internal temperature of the meat yet)
