I got two whole chickens now cut in half and the plan is to smoke them on Saturday for dinner, then vac seal the rest of the meat for later meals. My question is this. I plan on adding lemon juice, lime juice and some evoo to the jerk marinade then let the birds soak as long as possible. How long can they sit in the marinade with out the risk of the chicken getting mushy. I was hoping to start marinading them this afternoon then put the birds on around 4pm. Thouhgts? and thanks.
