The best BBQ chicken recipes
BBQ chicken is a definite crowd pleaser and we love these recipes...
Chicken is one of the most versatile meat options out there and one of our personal favourites to use on the BBQ. We love when the skin gets super crispy and the meat chars for that irresistible flavour.
We want ease and convenience when cooking on the BBQ, and these chicken recipes do exactly that. From chicken burgers, to BBQ chicken skewers, there are so many ways to use chicken at your next barbecue.
Here are some of our favourites, from gorgeous Cajun chicken, to a whole spatchcocked bird.
