  6. Turn the chicken over and continue grilling skin side UP for 13-15 minutes more on INDIRECT HEAT (15 minutes if chicken pieces are large).
  7. Transfer the chicken to DIRECT HEAT (hot area of the grill) skin side DOWN and cook 3-5 minutes or until the skin is crispy and golden.Using a meat thermometer your chicken should be 160-165° (it will continue to cook after you brush the bbq sauce on and while it’s resting when you remove it from the grill). NOTE: grill time may vary depending upon the thickness of the chicken breasts and the grill used.
  8. STEP 5: Before removing the chicken from the grill, brush with barbecue sauce. Cook 2-3 minutes then remove the chicken from the grill.
  9. Let the chicken rest 5 minutes to reabsorb the juices then serve.
