Set up a charcoal grill for indirect grilling. Throw the soaked wood chips on the
hot coals. Place the cover on the grill and adjust the vents holes on the top and
bottom to obtain the desired temperature (in this case it should be about 350
degrees F).

Place the chicken on the rack of the grill opposite the coals and smoke until the
chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, using an instant-read
thermometer, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove from the grill, tent loosely with
foil, and let rest 10 minutes before carving.
