the chicken was great and the wife loved it to so that was a plus. I am such a big fan of brine and marinade its like night and day.

thanks for looking.
 
What was the time and temp that you cooked them? Also, how did the skin turn out?
When i do chicken i smoke a bit hotter right around 250-270 this will help to crisp the skin also. i smoked them about 3 hours i cook more to temp so don't really keep track off time i pulled these off the smoker when they hit 168 degrees.  the skin turned out great it was not as crisp like i get most the time but it was real tasty.
