Instructies

  • Rub the chicken breasts all over with apple cider vinegar.
  • Season them on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or a gallon-size zip-top plastic bag.
  • Add the stock, onion, and garlic.
  • Cover or seal, and refrigerate at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook the chicken, heat the smoker to 325°F.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade.
  • Discard the marinade.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel.
  • Apply the rub liberally, all over both sides of the chicken breasts.
  • Wrap each breast in 2 slices of the bacon, securing the ends with toothpicks.
  • Place the breasts in an aluminum baking pan.
  • Place the pan in the smoker and cook the breasts for 1 hour, or until their internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Remove the pan from the smoker and let the breasts rest, uncovered, in the pan for 15 minutes.
  • Then slice the breasts and garnish them with any bacon pieces that have fallen aside.
  • Serve immediately.
  • This is delicious with a cold beer.
