If you love smoky, juicy chicken, you’re in the right place. This page pulls together all of my favorite smoked chicken recipes — from tender thighs to whole birds, crispy wings, and even ways to use up leftovers. Smoking chicken is one of the easiest ways to level up a weeknight dinner or impress at a backyard BBQ, and once you know the basics of time, temp, and seasoning, the flavor possibilities are endless.
Here you’ll find step-by-step recipes, tips for getting that perfect smoke ring, and ideas for rubs, brines, and sauces that make chicken anything but boring.
Whether you’re cooking on a pellet grill, charcoal smoker, or even adapting in the oven, these recipes will help you get it right every time.
