Looks good, Ed!  Sure would like to see the recipe here, though.

The skin usually does not crisp up in the smoker, so I will send the chicken to the weber grill for a few minutes to crisp it up after it reaches 160-165IT.

Once you finally realize that skin will NEVER be crispy in these smokers, your life will be a lot less stressful!  Took me awhile, but I finally accepted it, and am now at peace with it! 8)
