Lots of folks will tell you that boneless, skinless chicken breasts are best grilled, but they won’t have that wonderful smoky flavor—and since this is what we’re after, I encourage you to use the smoker instead! When smoke cooked properly, chicken breasts will be tender, juicy, and delicious. After you try this recipe, I don’t think you’ll ever do them any other way. Instead of mixing your own dried spices, you can also use a store-bought seasoning made especially for chicken.
