Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Rinse the half chicken under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    Place the seasoned chicken in a dish and baste it with TR’s Original™ BBQ Sauce. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best flavor).

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the marinated chicken on the grill, skin side down. Grill for about 15-20 minutes. Flip the chicken and baste with more BBQ sauce, then grill for another 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving with French fries and coleslaw.
