Great for the summer barbecue :I altered the barbecue sauce/chicken recipe slightly from a Bon Appetit magazine article. I did not marinade or smoke the chicken but grilled parts on low heat - brushing the chicken pieces liberally as I turned them. Read more It takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes to cook done on a low heat gas grill. Watch carefully to prevent over charring of chicken parts. See less
