Adobo Marinade
Marinate whole chicken or chicken parts, pork butt, or pork shoulder for up to 3 hours; marinate shrimp (shell on or off) for 20 minutes. My guess is that this might also be good with pork chops and butterflied pork tenderloin. My guess is that adding some mesquite chips to the grill might also be good and help to accentuate the smokiness in this dish.
