How to Make Reverse Barbecue Chicken

Chef John has cracked the code on perfect barbecue chicken for your summer cookout, loosely based on the reverse searing steak technique! In this video, Chef John teaches you how to make reverse barbecue chicken, which involves marinating the chicken halves with a wet rub and precooking them gently in the oven until they’re fully done. If you’re going with the overnight method, grilling will reheat each half while giving them a golden brown finish, whereas same-day cooking is a faster method. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
