Peruvian smoked chicken is one of my all time favorites. Steve Raichlen's recipe is a great base which you can tweak. If you decide to make this, I highly recommend getting huacatay paste and aji amarillo which you can order from Amazon. I also add in the aji rico sauce to add a kick. The green sauce is a must to dip the chicken in which you can find also in the link.

Just put the chicken on. Hard to tell but i also rubbed the chicken with the marinade inside as well.

I do it on the spinner from time to time. We're fortunate to have a couple fairly decent "international" markets in the area and the aji amarillo and huacatay are easy to come by. I'm sure yours is gonna turn out right tasty!
 
Pulled after a few more hours and temp reaching 165. Letting it rest and will plate with some pics of the two different sauces I made

It looks great. I love the Peruvian marinade on chicken but it also works great on beef.

I use it on Tri-Tip quite often. Cubed and cooked on skewers.
