First of all let me say that my SI2 makes me look like a professional chef. I love this thing! My wife loves brisket and though I've varied rubs, injected and not, and used various wood we have loved them all. Also when friends and family want pulled pork....I must be on speed dial! Thanks again for all the help on this forum! To this point I have shied away from poultry. My wife and I prefer crispy chicken skin and I have seen where this seems impossible just using my smoker. However, I want smoked chicken. I am wondering if I could get crispy chicken by finishing it in my rotisserie oven? Any information and advice would be, as always, greatly appreciated.

Hey Smokin' Fan, try finishing in the oven at 450 deg for about 10 or 15 minutes. You can also put the chicken under a low broiler but watch it carefully! I have done that successfully in the past. Just pull the chicken a few degrees early from where you want because the finishing will continue to cook it.

I am about a week away of trying my Harbor Freight $10 butane torch and am fairly confident it will work, but will advise for sure. i would think a propane torch would work if you had one.

Hey Fan, when you have a minute, go to the poultry section and search for "crispy skin." You will see that this topic has been covered extensively! Not trying to dodge your question, but there's no need to reinvent the wheel on a question that has had an incredible amount of discussion. Search, and you will likely find more answers than you bargained for!
My advice? Don't worry about crispy skin. Go for the quality meat beneath, and the sooner you give up on crispy skin in these smokers, the sooner you will be at peace. 8)
