Grilled Chicken Recipes - Grilling Chicken Made Easy

Grilled Chicken Recipes

I make a minor distinction between grilled chicken recipes and BBQ chicken recipes. Grilled chicken does not include a Barbecue sauce and BBQ chicken does.

Now there's no culinary reason I know of for doing that. When I have a backyard BBQ it might include grilling chicken with no sauce. But it's still a BBQ!

The distinction just makes it a lot easier to find recipes here on the chicken recipes site. This section is devoted to grilled chicken recipes.




Grilled Chicken Recipes

Grilling chicken is without a doubt the most difficult of all the methods for cooking chicken.

That's the reason most people opt for hotdogs, burgers or steaks when they BBQ.

Controlling the fire is the biggest problem with grilling chicken!

If you have a gas grill it's somewhat easier because you have heat controls, but I really prefer charcoal. I love the additional layer of flavor you get with charcoal.

Charcoal is more difficult to control. Even with a gas grill, however, you still have to be very careful not to overcook the chicken.

Grilled Chicken Recipes

Chicken grilled properly is moist, tender and delicious.

Getting to the moist, tender and delicious point with all the variables is in the skill of the backyard chef.

Believe me dry, tough and tasteless is much easier!
