BBQ Chicken

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Pat the chicken halves dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken halves.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken halves skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 15 minutes, then flip and continue grilling for another 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add BBQ Sauce

    Brush BBQ sauce generously on the chicken and grill for an additional 5 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice char.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Texas Toast

    In the last few minutes of grilling, toast the Texas toast on the grill until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with the signature side and grilled Texas toast.
