Smoked Jerk Chicken

OK so here's how the day went. I got the chicken in the marinade at 9am and I added a little evoo, placed em in plastic zip lock bags and let em rest in the fridge then about 2 hours later I added Lemon and lime juce. At about ten, the boss said "I'm goin to the gym then your daughter and I are goin shoppin", I responded "cool...see ya". With that said, I prepped the smoker, I hadn't done diddly with it from the last time I smoked so I had to clean her up a bit. Buy the time I was done, I looked at the clock and it said 11:30. I said to myself, "It's gotta be 12noon some where" so I cracked a cold one, then two, then three, well you get the story and I cooked away. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. The sun was out, I got a ton of stuff done around the house and the food was loved by the family. Oh, I also made a habanera fatty stuffed with cheese and pepperchinis, yum...yum. We also had sweet corn and a fresh tomato, basil and buffalo mozzarella salad. Here are the pics.

Looks good Toby.

did you use wood? I've been playing around with a combo of apple wood and allspice berries as my smoke flavoring for jerk. It works well.
 
Really nice looking chicken... Any info on the jerk marinade?
j, really love the idea of the allspice in the smoke. I'm guessing, just a bit in foil?

Wow, beautiful chicken! I have habaneros hanging like grapes in the garden right now, and was needing some ideas on where to use them, and I think i have a couple now! Between that fatty and the jerk, i should be able to get rid of a few.
