Okay, I'm requesting a dose of your sage advice, wit, and wisdom. I hope I don't regret it.
I got a batch of legs and thighs marinading in the Wishbone last night before bed. Was planning to cook tonight (so about 24 hr in the marinade), but my guests find themselves committed to taking their granddaughters to the "Dumbo" movie tonight.
The meal is thus rescheduled for tomorrow evening. That's no problem except for one niggling worry -- will I regret leaving the chix in the marinade this long? If so, any suggestions for managing the situation to minimize any trouble?
Menu --
Grilled chicken
Sweet potato salad
Baked beans with bacon and ham
Sugar snap peas (probably steamed with a bit of butter)
Adult beverage of choice
"Grasshopper" sundae -- vanilla ice cream with mint-and-cream liqueurLast edited by IowaGirl; March 30, 2019, 12:21 PM.

I kept the chicken in the Wishbone marinade for the entire 2 days, and it turned out fine - my worries were for nothing.
I preheated the Weber with all burners on medium, then turned the center burner off to set up an indirect heat cook at 275-300 F. The cook took roughly an hour until the thighs reached an internal temperature of 165-170.
Photo shows the meat and my baked beans with the Amazen smoker gadget about halfway through the cook. The beans had a nice smoky flavor, but the chicken could have been a little smokier. I need to experiment with the smoker location to see if I can get better results.
Everyone at the table loved the sweet potato salad. It's colorful, tart-sweet, and tasty.
Sweet Potato Salad
Makes about 3 quarts Adapted from recipe at Averiecooks.com
Salad -- Makes about 3 quarts
About 1 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
3 green onions, trimmed and thinly sliced OR 1/2 medium sized mild onion, diced
1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 cup sweet corn (frozen or fresh if possible, canned if not)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely minced (about half of 1 bunch. Optional, but recommended.)
Dressing -- For about 3 quarts of veggies, whisk or blend together:
1/4 cup mustard (dijon or other mild type -- honey mustard is nice)
1/2 cup vinegar (apple cider, malt, or similar)
1/4 cup olive oil or other mild oil
2 Tablespoons lemon or lime juice
1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon pepper, or to taste
Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
Wash and peel sweet potatoes. Cut into bite sized pieces (about 1 inch cubes.) Steam over boiling water until just tender or toss in a little mild oil and roast at 400 F until just tender. Cool until pleasantly warm.
Mix the black beans, green onions, red pepper, corn, and cilantro in a 4 quart bowl. When potatoes are cooled, add to the bean mixture. Pour dressing over the veggies and gently mix. Adjust seasonings as desired. Serve warm or chilled.

Man I'm sure glad I posted this book, I think the author at least owes me a postcard, I think I boosted his sales exponentially. They were going to discontinue it on Amazon when I bought it but now it's increasing in price. He's probably wondering what the heck is going on, with international sales to boot !!

WishBone Italian and chicken parts was my very first ever real cook on a real BBQ. That must be over 40 years ago now. It was an instant hit with the family, and launched me on to have excuses to buy the next piece of gear.
Overnight soak in WishBone, and mopped during the cook with a WishBone/Miracle Whip mix.
Thanks also for the jog back in time. This is on the list very soon.
