Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium. Place chicken on cutting board and cut down both sides of backbone with poultry shears or sharp boning knife. Flip chicken over; press on breastbone until it cracks and chicken lies close to flat. Season both sides of chicken with salt.

Step 2

Place chicken on preheated grill skin side up and cook, flipping every 5 minutes. After 10 minutes on each side (4 total flips), begin basting both sides with BBQ sauce. When chicken is cooked to a safe internal temp, cover fully with BBQ sauce. Allow to rest 10 minutes. Carve and server, refrigerating any leftovers.
