Looks good doesn't it. Well I'm here to tell you that visual presentation helps but it don't make it taste good. I’m trying to develop a recipe that works well on the grill, in the smoker or oven. First I cut the back out of the chickens and saved them in a freezer bag. I'll use them some day in stock. I then laid a chicken in a marinade of soy sauce, brown sugar, unsweetened pineapple juice, and crushed garlic cloves. I let the chicken marinade for 12-13 hours, turning occasionally. The other chicken got a good coating of Caribbean Jerk Seasoning and placed in a zip bag and put back in the refrigerator overnight. I started pre-heating the smoker about 1 pm. The bird went on about 1:30 pm. I cooked them both till about 4:30 then pulled them off to rest. Both chickens were moist and very smoky. The jerked chicken was finished with a hickory honey barbeque sauce purchased from the store. I'll definitely have to make my own next time. The Teriyaki chicken also was overpowered by smoke. The next time I’ll only add the wood for smoke the last hour or forty-five minutes.
