Trust me they don't care if you over cook your chicken, they add the solution, so the meat holds more water therefore increasing the weight of the chicken, also the salt added helps to keep the chicken from spoiling it faster (longer shelf life)
@BigStank5483I don't have a gas grill . Do have air fryer. Crock pot have too
@denisebranigan223Hi what should the temp be when cooking & is it best to leave lid open
@Laurie782I came here because I figured the bearded man in the flannel qtr zip would tell me the best way to make a banger grilled chicken.
@ScarzYourFaceThank you! That helps a lot!
@dsb227Gonna try this tonight.
I'll be back either way to report!
Guy lives in a free way
@ninjasquirrel9276Average time though?
@mbasdinkciYou totally missed the most important parts that I'd bet most of us came here for: direct or indirect part of the grill; burners and low, medium, or high; what temp should built in BBQ thermometer show before putting the chicken on; etc. Sort of a waste of time to watch without that stuff.
@dimebaggins8709I am currently making that mistake that we all make when cooking chicken breasts. Overcooking it.
First time cooking on a propane grill
Bro how hots the grill? You dont think thats imprtant enough to add in the video? Ok guy
@RoyceSurvivesGreat information but I wish you would’ve told us how much time to cook on each side?
@Bella5meGrill temps? Average times per side?
@doug_erricksonThe first words out of your mouth is the exact mistake I always make, I marinate my chicken breasts in Italian dressing
@Mikey196601Learned everything about grill chicken except what I am looking for.. what temp to make the grill? lol
@bobbykimble6358Did you cook over the flame or no?
@imtruth69How hot r u getting your grill before putting chicken on? Do u let your chicken sit out a bit before cooking so it’s not too cold prior to grilling? If so how long?
@jonboiii8706great video, sir. i do have a question to ask you. if i grill chicken and the breasts are thin and tenderized, how long would be an estimated time for grilling and how many degrees also? my concern is over cooking the chicken, since these i have are more thin sliced. any tips would be very helpful.
@agoogleuser1035Temperature?
@theartist4557Very nice walkthrough. Thanks very much.
@rockklimber24Nothing was said about grill temperature or anything lol
@RawgerNorthWatched your video and learned a whole lot. Best chicken I ever made on the grill today. All because of you. I never brined or pulled before 165-170. I was doing it all wrong. I used the hot side to get it rolling and to get grill marks then moved it over to the side with no heat and just checked the temp until 160 and pulled them. I’ll pull sooner next time. Going to do a 4 hour marinade tomorrow and try again. THANK YOU 🙏🏼 AND BLESS YOU.
@RCJyoutubeStep 1: be a man and cook with charcoal
@neverever1270Thank you for making this great tutorial.
@shadowknight0979I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.
@Matdog2010Thanks mate
@Riverside8888It would be nice if you did Bonin
@sic-n-tiredtired4273Thanks, Tom. Solid instruction. I have been tinkering with grilling chicken for decades and do it pretty much like you've shown on my own Weber gas grill with a couple of changes.
1. I like to fillet in half horizontally.
2. Instead of brine I marinate the breast fillets (for at least a couple of hours) in a zip-lock with a quality salad dressing like Paul Newman's, Girard's or Lawry's .
3. I cook at a medium-low temperature (320-325ish) for a bit longer for more juiciness.
I whole-heartedly agree on the 155 final temperature, but I remove chicken from the grill and cover with foil for 5 minutes.
Try it, you'll love it.
Would have been helpful to know how long to wait before the first flip
@bornatchulaHow long did you grill the chicken before you flipped it. And then how long after that
@randalwarren109this video has a huge problem with grillin part. will it be closed or open , how long is generally necessary. just grill marks and flip and done ?
@foucoultThanks for the vid
@jaleelbyars403Beautiful Chicken
@MGR12272Any other teenagers watching this bc their dad won’t teach them 😂
@turnemoveratstopWhat is the minimum internal temperature that is still safe?
@swb3248I think..... the chicken breast is a little bit overcooked
@smithmorgan5674Great video, not a big deal, but you are cutting the chicken wrong, you are supposed to cut long ways, against the grain
@Xcanairwhere are tips and tehniques? :)
@sergejsstanevics3237You didn't say anything about how long this process takes... How many minutes per side... And your temperature was pretty vague medium to high that can mean a pretty big range.
