Grilled Half Chicken

A whole chicken, cut in half and grilled for a tender, moist, rotisserie-like chicken!
Yield: 

6 servings (varies depending on size of chicken)
Ingredients: 

1 whole chicken (4-6 pounds), cut in half (see video below)
4 cups water
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon black pepper

To season:

Oil
salt
pepper
granulated garlic
paprika
Instructions: 

1. Brine chicken by placing the chicken, water, salt, garlic, and pepper in a non-metal bowl in the fridge for 2-6 hours.

2. Drain chicken and rinse under cold water. Let stand for 30 minutes
at room temperature. Preheat gas grill on high (or prepare charcoal
grill).

3. Liberally coat chicken halves with oil. Lightly season with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, and paprika.

4. Place chicken skin-side-up on pre-heated grill grate and close the
grill lid. Reduce grill temperature between low and medium-low. Grill
for 50-70 minutes or until internal temperature at the densest point is
180 degrees.

Optional: Grill chicken skin-side-down for the last 5 minutes for lovely grill marks on the outside!
