While you’re chimney is getting lit, have your quarters laid out of a big plate, with only a drizzle of salt.
Full chimney of charcoal, poured into your baskets and placed in the center of the grill.
Arrange leg quarters around the perimeter, but not directly over the coal.
Get a temp of 400-450 and cook until IT is 180-190. (Thighs and legs are extra greasy, so I cook em longer to remove the extra grease. Adjust to your preferences). It’ll take about an hour or so.
If you want smoke flavor, just place a wood chunk over your coal while you cook. It’ll pick up the smoke quickly.
Remove the chicken and sauce em up as you see fit. If you prefer a different rub, feel free to rub it up before you cook the chicken.
Final result will be tender, pull apart meat, with a smoky flavor, yet crispy skin as if you fried them up.
