cooking smoked chicken on a budget($5 a person)

This week I smoked chicken quarters(3 for $2.50)
I stuffed them with a touch of cheese and picked some fresh oregeno.
smoked them for 3 hours at a temp around 250.
I bought a bag of yellow corn meal($1,50) and cooked it down to make polenta.
after it was cool and hard I cut it in to fries 1/2 inch by 3 inch.
then grilled it.
I then picked my own homegrown spinach and tossed it with lemon,olive oil
fresh rosemary,sun-dried tomato, salt and pepper.
to plate
place 4 polenta fries on a plate and put spinach salad in the middle
leg on top,and a simple chicken driping pan sauce on top and a gilled pineapple on the side.
to be fancy try glazing the chicken with maple.
cheers
