throwing water on the fire creates steam, not smoke. the water from the steam displaces the oils in the chicken making a less flavorful bird. if you need a small controlled hit of smoke now and again use some small wood shavings like was done towards the end. also, just gotta say, the rub really needed to be applied under the skin.

I'm surprised that he finished with the pimento wood smoke. Normally with wood cooked meat like a brisket or ribs the smoke process is done at the beginning when the meat is raw and more able (or so the theory goes) to absorb the smoke. Interesting.
