Dogbyte's BBQ Honey-Chili Chicken
List of Ingredients
5 lbs (2.25Kg) Chicken (1 Whole Chicken cut up)
sprinkle light Granulated Garlic
sprinkle more Lemon Pepper (a few light sprinkles)
sprinkle moderate Onion Powder (a few moderate sprinkles)
sprinkle heavy Chili Powder (Hot or Medium, or use
Paprika for mild flavor, about
2 oz total per 5 Lb of chicken)
drizzle Honey
Recipe
Skin the chicken, then boil it until it is almost
fully cooked.
This is a great tip for ALL BBQ poultry recipes. It
will result in reduced-fat and extremely moist and
tender meat. It's best to have the water
boiling rapidly before adding the meat. Be sure
that you use a large enough pot of water so that the
meat doesn't cool it too far below the boiling point.
The chicken is ready for the grill a few minutes after
it losses it's pink color. If it begins to look bloated,
you've over-boiled it, and you have to remove it quickly
or you'll be having chicken soup for dinner. (about 20 minutes)
Place the chicken on the grill and sprinkle one side
lightly with Granulated Garlic and Lemon Pepper. Then
sprinkle moderately with Onion Powder. Then sprinkle heavily
with Chili Powder (or Paprika for mild flavor). Be sure to
cover completely with Chili powder.
Flip the meat on the grill and repeat the seasoning for
the other side.
Use a spray bottle to mist the chicken every few minutes.
This helps to keep it moist and also helps to keep the
meat from sticking to the grill. Don't spray your coals
except to put out flames from drippings.
NEVER NEVER NEVER LET THE FLAMES TOUCH THE MEAT DIRECTLY!
After the chicken comes off the grill (about 20 minutes),
apply a liberal coating of honey by pouring a stream from
a squeeze bottle or by dripping from a spoon.
Serve immediately or your honey will run off the hot chicken
and onto your plate.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes (to skin the chicken)
