How to prepare hot honey chicken nachos

Once you have your beautiful and smoky chicken, putting these Nachos together is a kids game. Follow these fast and simple steps so you can create your barbecue in your courtyard:

Preheat the smoker. Turn on yours smoker At 275 degrees F. I love using fruit wood such as cherry or apple here for a pinch of sweetness that does not overwhelm the smoky goodness.
Season the chicken. Take the chicken legs dry and give them a generous spicy rubbing coating. This blocks humidity and gives each bite that perfect mix of cake and spice.
Smoking the chicken. Put the thighs seasoned directly on the grates, close the lid and let the smoker do his things. In about an hour they will be tender, smoky and full of flavor. Oh, and your courtyard will have an incredible smell.
Rest and destroy the chicken. Once the chicken reaches 175 degrees F, pull it out of the smoker and leave to rest for 5-10 minutes. This blocks the juices inside where they belong. After resting, destroy it and prepare to assemble your Nachos.
Assemble the nachos and finish cooking. Distribute a layer of Tortilla Chips on a pan and sprinkle on a generous amount of grated cheese. Upload the grated chicken, it rains on half of the hot barbecue sauce and bring it back to the smoker long enough to allow the cheese to put perfectly. Imagine it: crunchy chips, sticky cheese and smoky chicken together in a glorious dish.
Add condiments, servants and have fun. Pull your Nachos from the smoker and accumulate your favorite condiments. A last pifo of barbecue sauce binds everything together for the final bite. Take a handful, take a photo (if you can wait for so long) and dig.
