I've done this in a knock of kettle heaps of times and it always turns out great.

Butterfly and Marinate as per the recipe and do a chimney full of beads or charcoal in a heap on one side for an indirect cook with a strip of foil to protect the bird from the heat at the closest point.

I cook to temp and it is always a winner. Did 2 kilos of drumsticks for the eldest sons 14th and his mates demolished them.

I'll see if I can find a photo and stick it here tommorrow

pelez80,
This is the setup I use when I do a chook. In the picture its a different recipe but the setup is always the same.

Cooks faster than whole and stays nice and moist. Can give it a quick finish straight over the charcoal for a few grill marks and a bit crispier skin too.

And put the lid vent over the top of the chook to draw hot air over it then out.

Yes.

If you want extra smoke get a $10 smoking tube from eBay.

Just do it how you would normally do a roast chook in the Q, I don't have one so can't comment on technique.

Grab a smoker box to create the smokiness but you can get away without it.
