Tequila, Chipotle and Citrus Marinated Smoked Chicken
« Reply #-1 on: May 03, 2015, 03:43:21 PM »
I wasn't going to post this but it was so good that I thought I should pass it on. I had 5 lbs of chicken legs to cook and searched for something a little different in the flavor arena. I came across this on What we're eating. This is a keeper.
But it is spicy hot! This was great on legs and would be tremendous with wings or spatchcocked chicken. I marinated the legs for 8 hours. They took about 4 hours cooked indirect on the PK until IT 170F.  Hickory pellets were added for extra smoke.
Plated with Roseanne Cash's potato salad. If  you want this recipe Google it. It's excellent.
