Step 1
In a bowl mix about 2 tbsp of the Texas Style BBQ Rub into the soften butter.
Step 2
Rub the butter mixture under the skin of the bird. Really get in there and get as much of the meat as possible.
Step 3
Rub a little extra butter on the skin as well.
Step 4
Shake your Texas Style BBQ Rub seasoning liberally all over the chicken, make sure you get every nook and cranny.
Step 5
Wrap it up in heavy duty aluminum foil.
Step 6
Place on your grill/smoker at about 230°
Step 7
After about 3/12 hours take off the grill and make sure the internal temperature is 165° F. If it is go ahead and remove it from the foil and place back on the grill
Step 8
Add some smoker chips to a smoker box, or you can use tin foil
Step 9
Wrap the tinfoil into a rectangle as tightly as possible, then poke a few holes into the top
Step 10
Continue to cook and smoke your unwrapped chicken for another 30-45 minutes to increase the smoked flavor, and dry up the skin. Keep the lid closed on your grill to capture all the smoke!
Step 11
It should be a beautiful golden brown when it's done!
Step 12
You can serve as is, or pull it apart with a fork. I like to shake in a little more bbq rub into the chicken after pulling as well as a couple squirts of bbq sauce. Then serve on a bun with some BBQ sauce and enjoy!
