Instructions:

  1. Prep the chicken: Peel back the skin of the chicken quarters and generously apply All-Sauce to the meat.
  2. Season generously: Sprinkle Little’s The Gravel Mix evenly over the chicken, making sure to coat the meat thoroughly.
  3. Skin magic: Replace the skin and season the outside with more Gravel Mix.
  4. Smoke it low and slow: Preheat your Pit Boss pellet smoker to 275°F. Place the chicken quarters on the smoker and cook for 2 hours.
  5. Baste and finish: After 1 hour, baste the chicken with a mixture of olive oil and Gravel Mix. Continue smoking until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Tips for Smoked Chicken Perfection:

  • Let it rest: Allow the smoked chicken to rest for about 5-10 minutes before carving to lock in the juices.
  • Experiment with flavors: Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your taste preferences(we recommend try Little's Urban Spice Seasoning). Try different woods for smoking for added flavor complexity.
  • Serve it up: Enjoy your smoked chicken quarters with your favorite BBQ sides like coleslaw, potato salad, or Brussels sprouts.
