Grilled Chicken Legs And Thighs

There’s nothing quite like the dark, juicy meat of a chicken leg or thigh. The extra fat found in these parts keep the meat moist, making it a forgiving cut to throw on a grill.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season chicken pieces with oil and All-Purpose Rub.
  2. Preheat grill to medium (About 50 charcoal briquettes) using a two-zone fire. You can add wood chunks or chips to the coals after the grill is heated.
  3. When the grill is ready place the chicken pieces directly over the coals skin side down.
  4. After 5-8 minutes move the chicken to the coal-free side of the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes with the lid closed. The internal temperature of the chicken should be about 180 degrees when ready.
  5. If still not done after 20 minutes place the pieces that still need the skin crisp over direct heat and cook all pieces for an extra 5 minutes.
  6. Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
