Arrange the legs in the cooker baskets with room between them, then place a small handful of manuka sawdust on some tinfoil on the base of the cooker and light both burners add the baskets of jerk chicken and let smoke for 1h hour, remove the manuka and turn the heat down a little, continue to bake the chicken legs till the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone.
