Method

Prepare Chicken

Marinate Chicken

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Add the chicken leg quarters and coat well. Marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

Grill Chicken

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 30-35 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Brush with BBQ sauce during the last 10 minutes of grilling.

Prepare Mac & Cheese

Cook Pasta

In a large pot, cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Make Cheese Sauce

In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, cooking until thickened. Add in cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper until melted and smooth.

Combine

Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and mix well. Keep warm until serving.

Prepare Slaw

Mix Slaw Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Toss until well combined and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Prepare Street Corn

Grill Corn

Preheat your grill to medium heat. Grill corn on the cob for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until slightly charred.

Dress Corn

In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, Cotija cheese, chili powder, and lime juice. Brush this mixture over the grilled corn before serving.
