Tips for Grilling Chicken on Grill

This Apple BBQ Grilled Chicken is marinated in a combination of apple juice, brown sugar, and BBQ sauce. Make sure to use a BBQ sauce that you like. It gives the chicken most of its flavor, so you want to use a good BBQ sauce. I let the chicken marinate overnight in the marinade. I think the longer the better!!! If you don't have that long to let the chicken marinate, let it hang out in the marinade for at least 2 or 3 hours.

My number one tip for grilling chicken breasts is to pound the chicken to an even thickness. We place the chicken in a ziplock bag and use a meat mallet to pound the chicken so it all the same thickness. There is nothing worse than a half juicy, half dry piece of chicken. Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness will ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.

We grill exclusively on a charcoal grill. My number one tip for grilling on charcoal is to use a charcoal starter. There is nothing worse than having your food taste like lighter fluid! Ditch the lighter fluid and use a charcoal starter. Here is a post that tells you how to use a charcoal starter with a video: https://www.plainchicken.com/2014/05/grilling-101-how-to-use-charcoal-starter.html
