Total time for chicken is about 45 min. I preheated the grill (gas/ 3 burners) with all burners on high. Got the temp up to about 550 and put the pieces of chicken on the grill to sear them. About 5 min on each side and right over the flames. Then I used the wood planks and let the chicken sit on them for about another 20-25 min on indirect heat. I usually leave one burner on and have the planks off to the side. Temp stays around 350-400. I have to admit they came out a shade dry last night. Still tasted good, and it wasn't like we were scrambling to the fridge looking for something to take away the dryness. LOL I want to either buy a new grill with an infrared searer or just see if I can buy a searer by itself. Also, I soaked the planks for about 5hrs before using them. Another trick is to coat them in cooking oil before using. I am going to try that next.
I am still learning but having fun with it. I've done corn on the cob, fresh cut veggies, baked potatoes and even eggplant. I have to admit I've got the vegetable thing down. Even the wife says I'm pretty close to resturaunt quality. :cool: Men and women are similar at times. Cook them a good meal and you can get them to do all kinds of stuff for ya. :laugh:
