At 350, the drum infuses a lot more flavor than a pellet grill and the skin is definitely crispier. I have always thought the pellet grill was better at beef and pork than chicken.
I agree, the drum does a better job with the skin. But, we don't usually eat the skin anyway. With that said, my PBC also cooks amazing chicken. But, I'm an equal opportunity smoker :)

The only time ive gotten good skin on a bird was our turkey last Thanksgiving, but that was on for much much longer than these little chickens.
