Steps:
- Brine the chicken: Combine 4 cups water, 2/3 cup salt, and the brown sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and whisk until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved. Turn off the heat and transfer to a bowl or pot large enough to submerge the chicken. Stir in 6 cups of ice water and let cool completely. Submerge the chicken in the cooled brine, cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
- Take the chicken out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Remove from the brine and pat dry completely.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the middle burners. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
- Whisk together the paprika, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, cayenne, garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Brush the chicken all over with the melted butter, and then pat on all of the dry rub mixture.
- Grill the chicken: Place the chicken breast-side up on the indirect side of the grill, with the legs facing the hotter side of the grill. Cover and cook until an instant-read thermometer reads at least 165 degrees F in the thickest part of the thigh (avoiding the bone), 50 to 60 minutes. The chicken will be quite dark and blackened in spots.
- Remove from the grill and let rest on a cutting board for at least 20 minutes before carving.
GRILLED BLACKENED CHICKEN
This is one of the best if not the best stove top grilled chicken I've had in a long time. These pieces were very tender and moist, not to mention very tasty as well! Even though this was cooked on the stove top, I think it would work just as well on an outside grill. These 2 large pieces were more than we could eat. Would...

Steps:
- 1. Pull chicken breast from fridge 30 minutes prior to grilling to bring to room temperture.
- 2. Combine all seasoning and whisk; set aside.
- 3. Trim any excess fat from chicken and then rub evenly with olive oil. Sprinkle seasoning/rub evenly over chicken; rub to cover entire pieces.
- 4. Heat grill over medium/high heat until literally smoking. You want to hear the meat sizzle once it hits the grill.
- 5. Place breast on grill, cover and cook about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Turn heat off and remove grill from heat. Leave meat in pan (covered) for abour 2 minutes and then remove to plate; cover with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
- 6. NOTES: 3 steps to insure a tender moist piece of chicken: 1. Remove chicken from fridge 30 minutes prior to grilling. 2. Make sure the grill is smoking hot before you place the chicken in it. 3. Let the chicken rest (covered) 10 minutes before serving. I used a cast iron grill.

BLACKENED CHICKEN
This spicy blackened chicken packs a one-two punch of flavor. The grilled chicken is basted with a peppery white sauce-there's plenty of extra sauce left over for dipping. -Stephanie Kenney, Falkville, Alabama

- Clean and oil the grill. Preheat grill to a surface temperature of about 450° which is medium-high on most grills. You must get the surface temperature correct.
- Trim breasts well. You can brine if you wish but then skip the salt in the rub. A simple brine of 2 cups water, 2 tablespoons table salt, and 2 tablespoons sugar for 20 to 60 minutes help keep them moist.
- Mix rub 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper. You may adjust the cayenne to taste and use black pepper if you want.
