Default Smoked chicken instead of smoked turkey?

Has anyone done a smoked chicken similar to a smoked turkey, or does everyone stick with the beer can method?

Whaddya mean similar to a turkey? Many ways to do both chicken and turkeys. And if you've only done beer can chicken you haven't lived my brother! Not saying BC chicken isn't good... I don't think I've ever done a beer can chicken & honestly I really don't feel the need to. There are so MANY ways to smoke a chicken. Look around the site. The main thing to remember is "hot smoke"

Cheers

I do my chicken just like a turkey except no injection. Usually use the mini now as it does such a good job.

Try either on a Rotisserie. Smoking Poultry is very easy, it takes on smoke very fast so go lite on the wood. I prefer to cook poultry at 325º-350º.

Rotisserie for me it's the "standard" way to cook chicken in my neck of the woods (works great for Turkeys too).

I'm one of those who doesn't like smoke on my chicken but I cook spatchcock or chicken halves indirect with lump I find it smokey enough with the charcoal. Mild woods would work I'm sure

I smoked a whole chicken Beer can style low and slow @ 225 once, and only once. It tasted like a wet cigarette. So don't make that mistake, or make the mistake, and you'll never do it again. Stay higher around 350, and you'll be just fine. I'm a beer can chicken kinda guy, but I've never spatchcocked a chicken, so I can't comment.

Maybe you accidentally used a spit can I have injected chickens with peach nectar, butter, and rub and then used the peach nectar can instead of beer (however I did drink beer while smoking the chickens - don't know if that counts). Turned out very tasty.
