Now, as a brine is also a flavor carrier into the meat of the brine-ee, feel free to add any extra spices you’d like. Brine your whole or half bird overnight. If chicky is cut into pieces, only brine for about 8 hours. Step #2 : Rub some love. If you have your own BBQ Rub recipe, use it, otherwise, use this one it’s great for chicken or pork. Step #3: Smoke. Smoke your bird for about 6 hours (if whole) at 200 degrees. A half bird- bone-in should take 4 hours at 200 degrees. Individual pieces should take 2 hours.
