Ingredients

Main
- 1 cup Texas-style BBQ Sauce (your preferred brand)

Print the recipe

01

Trim visible fat from chicken breasts. Rub chicken with your favorite Cajun seasoning (or seasoning of your choice) and refrigerate for minimum of 1 hour.
02

Preheat smoker to 225°F. Smoke chicken directly on rack for 4-6 hours or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (the total cooking time will depend on the cut of the meat - i.e. how thick or thin).
03

Baste chicken with BBQ sauce during the last hour of cook time. Serve with remaining sauce.
04

Smoking Tip: Add one small handful of wood chips to the smoker every hour. Do not add wood chips more than 3 times during the smoking process. Too much smoke can cause your meat to become bitter.
