Deconstructed Chicken Kabobs

1-2 lbs dark meat chicken (legs, b/s thighs)

2 red / yellow Bell peppers chopped in 1” pieces

1 pkg baby Portabella mushrooms halved

1 large white Sweet Onion rough chopped in 1” pieces

3/4 C. Yay Soy - Island Teriyaki Sauce

1/4 C. Wishbone – Italian (Bold Garlic) Salad Dressing

Fire Water (homemade)



Marinade – Mix Teriyaki and Salad Dressing together, stir well. Place chicken in 1 gal ziplock bag and add half of marinade). Place peppers, mushrooms and onions in a separate 1 gal ziplock bag and add balance of marinade. Add two healthy squirts of Firewater to each bag. (Note: Depending on how much chicken, you may need to add a bit more marinade to the chicken.) Allow chicken and veggies to marinate for several hours, overnight if possible.

Grill – Place veggies in a veggie basket for grilling. Place veggies on preheated grill/smoke (Traeger) at 250 degrees. Grill for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally to heat evenly. Move veggies to indirect heat. Place marinated chicken on grill and increase temp to 300. Grill / smoke until chicken is done (approximately 30-40 minutes), turning the heat to ‘Hi’ halfway through cooking time. Turn the chicken a couple times during the process to cook evenly on all sides. You may also want to move chicken around to get even cooking. As each piece of chicken nears done-ness place it in the veggie basket with the veggies. Continue until all chicken is cooked.

Remove chicken and veggies from grill and serve. It's fabulous!!

Note: The recipe for Firewater can be found here on SMF. (I'll look for the link and post it).
I did a little different variation using all smoked peppers, but it's essentially the same recipe (and it's awesome).

Here's a link to the Firewater recipe...http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/133831/experimental-fire-water-aka-acid-rain

Just a follow up note (for clarity)...Typically I'll do this recipe with about (4) chicken drumsticks and (8-9) B/S chicken thighs. I also poke all the chicken with a carving fork before putting it in the marinade. The B/S thighs will cook faster than the legs, so if your grill has a hot spot put the legs there.
 
I actually did get some photos...if I could only find the cable for my camera to upload them! When I do, I will post them.
