Bobby Flays 16 Spice Smoked Chicken

Bobby Flays 16 Spice Smoked Chicken
Smoked Chicken REcipe Ingredients

• 1 T. ground cinnamon
• 1 T. ancho chili powder
• 1 T. pasilla chili powder
• 1 T. ground cumin
• 1 T. ground coriander
• 1 t. garlic powder
• 1 t. onion powder
• 1 t. ground ginger
• 1 t. ground cloves
• 1 t. ground fennel seed
• 1 t. ground allspice
• 1 t. chili de arbol powder
• 2 T. brown sugar
• 1 T. kosher salt
• 1 T. coarsely ground black pepper
• 1/2 t. cayenne pepper
• 1 (3-4 lb.) chicken
• 1 c. applewood or hickory wood chips, soaked in water for 10 minutes

Smoked Chicken Recipe Instructions

Combine all spices in a bowl. Rub the entire chicken with the spice rub, including the cavity, and set aside while you prepare the grill. (I used a smoker. If you are using a smoker, do it as you normally would.)
Set up a charcoal grill for indirect grilling. Throw the soaked wood chips on the hot coals. (I used a smoker box.) Place the cover on the grill and adjust the vent holes on the top and bottom to obtain the desired temperature of about 350 degrees. (Again, if you use a smoker, just do it as you would normally.)
Place the chicken on the rack of the grill opposite the coals and smoke until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees, using an instant-read thermomenter, about 2-2 1/2 hours. (Again....you know the drill by this time...if you use a smoker, just do it as you would normally.) Remove from the grill, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 10 minutes before carving.
NOTE: I like to use the "beer can" technique on this instead of the Bobby Flay directions. I use one of those stands that holds the can inside of it and the chicken fits over top - the device just makes the chicken more stable on the smoker or grill. Anyway, I empty out half of a regular, full-sugar Coke and add a couple of tablespoons of the spice mixture into the can. I also rub some of the spice mixture BETWEEN the skin and the breast of the chicken as well as all over the outside of the skin on all surfaces of the chicken. This technique makes the chicken even juicier and spicier and delicious-ier(?)!

• 3/4 c. celery, chopped

• 1/2 lb. smoked sausage (kielbasa or Polish sausage)
• 1 tsp. minced garlic
• Hot rice

SMOKED CHICKEN RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
Rub both sides of cut up chicken pieces with salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Let sit for 30 minutes. Mix onions, peppers, and celery. Put flour, salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces and shake. Save 1/2 cup of the flour mixture. Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a large fry pan. Add chicken and fry until brown on both sides, 5-8 minutes each side. Remove chicken and drain on paper towel. Pour hot oil and pan drippings into a glass measuring cup. Return 1/2 cup of the oil to the skillet. Over high heat, whisk in the reserved flour mixture. Cook and stir about 4 minutes, until dark in color. Remove from heat and add vegetables; stir until mixture stops darkening. Return pan to low heat and cook while stirring until vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.

Bring chicken stock to a boil in a large Dutch oven. Add the vegetable mixture by spoonfuls, whisking between each addition. Return to a boil, remembering to whisk constantly. Bring to a simmer. Slice and add the smoked sausage. Simmer uncovered about 45 minutes, stirring often in the last 8-10 minutes.

Bone the chicken pieces and dice the meat into bite size pieces. When gumbo has simmered 45 minutes, stir in the chicken. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately. If serving as a main course, scoop 1/3 cup cooked rice into a soup bowl, circle with about 1 1/4 cup gumbo. If serving as an appetizer, spoon 1 heaping teaspoon cooked rice into a cup, covering with 3/4 cup gumbo. Serves 6 as the main dish or 10 as an appetizer....enjoy it !
