grilled BBQ chicken at it’s best…

bbq chickenCooking on the grill is one of my most favorite things ever!  Let me be clear…when The Hubby cooks on the grill it is one of my most favorite things…especially when it is this chicken!!

Start it off right

I start this BBQ chicken off with my most favorite marinade.  I find it gives the chicken a lot of flavor and also helps to tenderize the chicken a little.

If you do not have time to marinade, thats ok, just make sure to season it well.

What cuts are best?

BBQ chicken drumWith chicken there are so many options.  You could grill chicken breasts, drumsticks, thighs to the whole leg quarter.  Whatever cut you choose make sure to adjust cooking time as needed until chicken reaches at least 165 degrees.

Make sure to not over cook it though as it can dry out really fast, another good reason to marinate the chicken.

NOW the sauce…

In my humble opinion, I think the sauce is what really sets this chicken apart from other grilled chicken.  For me I use my homemade BBQ sauce , but feel free to use whatever sauce you and your family love.

I like a sauce that is a little sweet and a little spicy.  When grilled the flavors with intensify and make a party in your mouth…trust me there will be a party, and a good party for sure!!

Heat up the grill…

Now that the chicken is marinated and it has been cooked to perfection on the grill it is time to dig in and get your fingers a little sticky and enjoy everything there is to love about BBQ chicken.

Trust me the more sauce there is the better is it…and the messier you get the better the meal…trust me these are real things!!
