Grill Time! Easy Barbecued Chicken Thighs

This recipe is very similar to the barbecued rib recipe I shared a short time ago.  You could probably do both recipes in one day, the only real difference is that the chicken seems to cook through a little faster!

Easy Barbecued Chicken 
8 servings



8-12 chicken pieces, at room temperature
salt
pepper
1 bottle of your favorite barbecue sauce

Preheat grill.  While grill is heating up, salt and pepper the chicken thighs liberally.  

Turn of one or two of the burners on the grill.  Spray the grids that are over the "off" burners with cooking spray, or wipe them with vegetable oil.  Arrange the chicken, skin side down, over these burners and close the lid of the grill.  Cook for about 1/2 hour, then flip the chicken so that the skin side is up.  Cook for another half hour.

About 20 minutes before serving time, baste the skin of the chicken liberally with barbecue sauce. Using an instant read meat thermometer, chicken is done when internal temperature is 165℉.
Remove from grill, cover with foil and allow to rest about 15 minutes before serving.
