Ingredients

Instructions

  • Be sure that you are starting with a container or bag large enough to hold the liquid and meat, as well as ice.
  • I did this batch with five cans of Coca Cola.
  • Add in the chicken legs to the container or bag.
  • Mix in the other ingredients and whisk with a whisk if you can.
  • Add ice to keep cold or top with more Coca Cola if your meat is not covered.
  • Allow the legs to brine for at least four hours.
  • I whipped these Coca Cola Chicken legs alongside my Coca Cola Chicken Thighs on my Pit Boss Pro Series.
  • Now, I did decide to add just smoke to the chicken legs and I used Apple Pellets to smoke my meat but you could use any flavor.
  • I put the chicken legs on my Pit Boss around 1:20 and allowed them to cold smoke for four hours.
  • Then I turned up the grill and let them cook!!
  • Don't worry if you chose not to smoke them they will turn out great still.
  • Serve and enjoy!
