Recipe type: Outdoor Grilling
Serves: 4-5
Ingredients
- 4-5 large chicken breasts
- 1½ cup Kraft Roasted Red Pepper Olive Oil Vinaigrette or oil based marinade of choice
Instructions
- Wash and pat dry the chicken breasts and lay them on a large piece of heavy duty aluminum foil.
- Drizzle half of the marinade over the tops, flip, drizzle the other side of the chicken.
- Close the foil pouch and place in the refrigerator.
- Heat your charcoal in a smoker box until the coals turn grey, about 20-30 minutes depending on the type of charcoal you use.
- Place hickory wood chunks in the smoker box with the heated charcoal to get a good rolling smoke.
- Place foil pack on bottom rack of your grill, close cover, and smoke for 2-2½ hours, until internal temperature is 160ºF and juices run clear.
- Maintain a grill temperature of approximately 250ºF throughout the smoking process.
Notes
If using a charcoal grill without a smoker box, heat the charcoals for the indirect heat cooking method. Soak the hickory chunks in water and place them in a foil pouch; poke holes in the pouch and place on the coals to produce smoke.
