Pulled Chicken question

[SMeadows]

Wanting to make some pulled chicken. Do I smoke a whole bird? It just sections, such as thighs? Thanks

I like doing whole chickens when I make pulled chicken. You could do leg quarters if you wanted to but probably not just chicken breasts. I would think they would dry out too much.

I'd do whole chickens also.

I would do whole chickens, that is what I do. They are fairly inexpensive too.

Thanks for the help guys!

Whole chicken is the best and probably cheaper to buy.

I do leg quarters.
You can get a big bag of the frozen ones pretty cheap. You can remove the backbone like Chris describes here.

Do you guys brine the bird before smoking?
