baked chicken recipes

When grilling chicken pieces with the skin on the first thing to do to avoid flare-ups is to not pierce the meat. Remember to always use tongs when grilling chicken. Also be sure to always keep the chicken moving. Try to save space on the grill to move chicken pieces out of the fire. Move the chicken to the upper rack or off the grill completely for a minute to let the fires die down. Chicken should be cooked at a medium temperature, not at the highest temperature setting on your grill.

With all of these handy tips, perfectly grilled chicken is right around the corner.

* When grilling, aromatic woods, such as hickory, mesquite or cherry, can be added to the preheated coals to give the chicken a distinctive flavor.

* Start with chicken that has been trimmed of excess fat and remember to baste carefully so oil won't drip onto the coals and cause flare ups.

* If you have a hard time in telling whether your chicken is almost cooked, you could purchase a meat thermometer.

* Before you get ready to grill, marinade your steaks for at least a few hours.

* If the heat is too intense, move food from hot spots, which are usually found in the center of the grill, to the cooler areas around the edge.

* Minimize fat drips into the grill, which causes flare ups.
