Whole Chicken on the MAK with sides

I know most like to spatchcock to cook evenly, but sometimes I like to cook a chicken whole so I can add flavor through the cavity.

Started with a whole fryer, carrots, celery, onion, and lemon:

Stuffed with the ingrediants and then seasoned with Plowboys Yardbird rub and Slap Yo Daddy's Chicken rug:

On the MAK 2 Star on smoke for 45 minutes:

While the chicken is smoking, prepping the potatoes and green beans. First the potatoes, with red onion, Annies EVOO, butter, BPS Desert Gold, and some bacon:

Next, some green beans, with yellow onion, Annies EVOO, butter, BPS Desert Gold, and some bacon:

After chicken is done smoking, raised the MAK up to 325-350°F. Added potatoes and green beans:

Potatoes and green beans already done. Chicken about ready to pull off the MAK:

The whole meal looks outstanding. Even the veggies you stuffed inside look great.

I've not done green beans that way on the grill. I need to give 'em a try.
