All-American Sticky BBQ Chicken

Nothing says summer like sticky, smoky BBQ chicken hot off the grill. These bone-in, skin-on leg quarters are dry-rubbed, marinated overnight, and layered with BBQ sauce until every bite is caramelized, saucy, and impossible to put down.

chicken leg quarters, bone-in, skin on
4 lbs
BBQ dry rub seasoning
1/4 cup
avocado oil (or high heat oil of choice)
2 tbsp
BBQ sauce
1 cup
1
In a large mixing bowl, add BBQ dry rub seasoning and oil, then stir to combine.
2
Place chicken in the marinade and rub the seasoning into the meat until evenly coated. Seal the bowl with a lid or wrap, then transfer to the fridge to marinate overnight, or at least 4 hours.
3
When the chicken is ready to grill, remove from the fridge.
4
Add 2 cups of water to the drip tray and preheat your Kenyon Grill to high heat.
5
Sear chicken for 5 minutes per side, or until well marked. Afterwards, lower temperature to medium heat. Baste the surface of the chicken with BBQ sauce, flip, then baste the other side.
6
Close the lid. Allow to cook for 5 minutes, then flip, baste, and repeat until all the BBQ sauce is used (about 30-35 minutes). Continue cooking until the internal temperature registers 165°F.
7
When ready, remove from heat, serve, and enjoy!
