I can't take credit for this reicpe, but I thought I'd post it because it is FUCKING AMAZING. It was developed by my boss at work, whose specialty is barbecue.
Achiote Marinade
1 bunch green onions, sliced 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped 4 jalapeno peppers, de-seeded and sliced 3 1/2 oz block of achiote paste 3 limes, juiced 3 lemons, juiced 2 oranges, juiced 1 grapefruit, juiced 4 cloves garlic, sliced 1 can beer 1/2 cup canola oil 3 tablespoons cumin, ground 2 tablespoons black pepper 2 tablespoons kosher salt 3 tablespoons paprika 3 tablespoons ancho or New Mexican chiles, ground (I used both kinds) Just mix it up well and marinade your chicken in it, whole, halved, quartered, or eight cut. Up to 48 hours is best, but shorter times work well too. This recipe is very versatile, as long as you have the achiote paste and the citrus, I think anything goes.
You can smoke it or slow-grill it but please don't use briquettes or natural gas.
