whole chicken smoke

fbpMember

I was watching the video below and nooticed that the chicken was put in the smoker without preheat. Is this correct? Doesnt this expose the meat to the "early" smoke which Ive read is more harsh in flavor. I've preheated for all my smokes so far. Thanks for any thoughts.

No preheating needed just like the manual states. You may indeed get some heavy initial smoke. On my Amerique it not ugly heavy. Just good. Please be aware that poultry skin will not be crisp since you are smoking low and slow. Some will finish off on a hot grill or oven broiler just to crisp up the skin.
