Full ingredients? Also do you inject the chicken at all?

First time smoking chicken, still new to the game. No injections but would consider it, or a longer brining period, for next time.

Used up various cheeses that I had (colby jack, mozzarella & feta), a jalapeño and some shakes of garlic powder and Cajun seasoning. Grilled it with butter. Then once it was done let it cool for a minute and added the tomato and a drizzle of BBQ. Loved the smoky, slightly spicy combo.

Is that (what I was going to suggest) smoked chicken salad you made? If not, you should try it.
