Tip & Advice
To prevent breast meat over cooking, batch it together while you prepare and cook on the cooler parts of the grill.
Chicken Perfection
Hot tip: It’s a good idea to bring your chicken, or any meat for that matter, up to room temperature before you start grilling it. If it’s cold it may take longer to cook or burn on the outside while underdone on the inside. I would put it out on a baking tray, season it and let it sit for at least half an hour before putting it on the grill. Even up to an hour if appropriate.
