"I used my recipe - #recipe2579 for this dish. If you don't plan to smoke your chicken, you can follow the same recipe for the brine and the seasoning and then just grill your chicken with or without wood chips, but it is amazing if the chicken is smoked - it just gives an amazing flavor to this dish. A simple mix of garlic, dijon mustard, apricot preserves and fresh ginger makes this the perfect glaze for this smoky chicken. After the chicken has smoked, either cut it up or glaze it as a whole chicken. Leave in the smoker an additional 10-15 minutes. Serve with your favorite sides. Lemony green beans, and a rice pilaf is a nice side to the chicken."
