I smoked a whole chicken for my fiance to make chicken tortilla soup with, turned out really good. Used about half of the chicken shredded and chopped in the soup. I smoked the chicken using my pork rub and then a layer of salt on the skin on the smoker using pecan wood. Then she took over and made the soup. I know it had corn, onions, chicken stock, and just let her roll the way I do with the smoking. Then I threw a pork butt on after taking the chicken off for a pot luck today. As others have said, this butt didn't get done until 6 am cooking around 240-250. I was really planning on not staying up all night, but that is BBQ. Pork turned out really well, took it off the smoker around 190, wrapped in foil with towels in my yeti cooler until the pot luck at noon. I took my knives, claws, apron, cutting board to church for the after church pot luck!
