Pozole Rojo (Pork and Hominy Stew)

Smoked Whole Chicken on the Traeger

Smoked Whole Chicken on the Traeger

There are so many ways to cook a whole chicken, but my favourite (aside from rotisserie) is to use the Traeger.

With this recipe (and a 3 lb raw whole chicken), you can have dinner for 4 on the table in just 1.5 hours.
