This is legitimately the best jerk chicken recipe you will ever eat. I recommend getting insanely stoned beforehand to get the true Rastafarian experience.
Jerk Marinade (see below)
Whole free-range chicken 4-6 lbs, cut into pieces, skin on.
Directions:
1. Score chicken all over.
2. Pour marinade over chicken and rub thoroughly.
3. Marinate 24 hours.
4. Preheat grill to 250 degrees, leaving one burner off.
5. Wrap a couple of chunks of apple or maple wood in aluminum foil and stick under grates of direct heat.
6. Place chicken on grill over indirect heat (part of grill that is off) with dark meat closest to direct heat.
7. Cover and let roast for 2 hours. Make sure to keep temperature between 250-275 degrees.
