Maui Wowee Sticky Chicken
1 hr 15 mins - Prep 10 mins / Cook 1 hr 5 mins
Beginner
There’s just something about a meal served inside a pineapple that transports you to a tropical Isle. The sweet, stickiness of the chicken is bold and bright, while hints of spicy chili powder, tangy citrus, and applewood smoke add a sumptuous complexity that gets better with every bite.
About the cut:
A dark-meat poultry, chicken thighs are a favorite cut for many due to their flavor and tenderness. They start out a little tough because chicken thighs contain more tendons. But when they're cooked properly, they become tender and juicy because thighs contain more fat than white meat.
This recipe was created by our partner, Brigette Duran, who made the dish on our Marshal Centerbox Smoker, but you can make it on your grill or smoker.
