bbq: Hello i have back attached chicken legs they are good sized what i need to know is how long to cook them on a bbq thanks|||Brine them in 1/3 cup kosher salt and water for 30 minutes or so first. Then dry well. Season with salt, pepper and oil. Cut slits in the skin every inch apart to let steam out. Turn on half the burners on the grill and when hot, put chicken over un-lit burners. Cook skin side up. Rotate pieces after 20 minutes. 20 minutes later you can remove. Note: at the end you can put the chicken skin-side down over the hot grill side for 2 minutes to get grill marks, but if your BBQ was hovering about 425 - the skin should be a nice brown already.|||Boil them first. This will make them tender and cook better on the grill without drying out since chicken with bone needs to be cooked slower on the grill over indirect heat. After boiling is done let them sit and base them with olive oil and season them. then put them on the grill and constantly coat the chicken with BBQ sauce. You want to layer your sauce on|||Another option is to remove the skin and make a few slits in the thickest part of meat. Then marinade either in just oil,garlic and lemon. Or if you have more time natural yoghurt, fresh ginger, crushed garlic and spices such as paprika, cumin & coriander. The marinade half cooks the meat, so it wont take as long plus you have the lovely flavour as well. Enjoy!!|||When I do that I pre-boil the chicken - let it cool - place on the BBQ with whatever spices/sauces you use - when the chicken is browned you will know it's done
