How To Grill Perfect BBQ Chicken
Choose wisely
One of the first things you have to think about what cuts you like best. If you want juicy chicken, skip the breasts because those are the most dry. Legs and thighs are your best option because they have a little fat and are usually the most tender.
Lock in the flavor
One of the biggest mistakes is to leave the entire flavor of the chicken to the bbq sauce. The fact is that if you want delicious flavorful chicken, you have to add a good spice rub before it hits the grill.
Spice Rub Recipe
½ cup of brown sugar
½ cup of paprika
1 tablespoon of ground black pepper
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of chili powder
1 tablespoon of onion power
1 tablespoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
Grilling
When grilling chicken you have to make sure your temperature is just right. If you are using a charcoal grill, you can’t really test how hot your grill is, but one of the things you can do is take a look at the charcoal. Your high heat is located at the center where you see those charcoals that are bright red. The first you need to do is oil your grill, which will prevent your chicken from sticking. Grab a paper towel and dip it in vegetable oil and grease the grill. 
Then place the chicken skin side down on the high-heat part of your grill and let it cook. Check after a couple of minutes and flip it to the other side, if it’s sticking do not flip it just yet. Once you have some nice grill marks on both sides of your chicken, you can move it to the edges of the grill where the heat is not as intense so that it can continue cooking all the way through. Once your chicken is cooked you can add your liquid barbecue sauce and place it back on the indirect heat for a couple of minutes until it is caramelized. That way it won’t burn and it will be juicy and flavorful.
