Im also from east Tennessee and currently my favorite marinades are red wine vinegar based. What I did for some chicken drumsticks i baked ( I know now bbq, but I was in a pinch) was set them in a dish and slathered them with red wine vinegar. Covered them with tony sacherets Cajun season. garlic, salt, pepper, curry, paprika, rosemary, thyme... and a few other odds and ends.. Let it sit about 24 hours.. Let it bake at 350 for about an hour.. Uncovered, baked at 400 for about 20 mins
