Original BBQ Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

Weber has a line of marinade mixes that you add juice to that are really, really good. And they’re perfect for flavoring chicken before cooking it on the Char-Broil Big Easy. I picked up a package of each and used them to marinate my favorite, split chicken breasts. The original BBQ marinade is mixed with apple juice to produce wonderfully seasoned chicken. A hint of hickory smoke and a hint of sweetness, you’ll think you’re enjoying sauced chicken, but instead all that flavor comes from the marinade alone.

Original BBQ Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Since the Big Easy cooks at a high temperature you do have to watch that your chicken doesn’t char. One way to help prevent that is to not use marinades containing substances that might burn, like sugar or honey. The other is to rinse the chicken before cooking. Now, you’re going to lose a bit of flavor doing that, but if like me you’re going to remove the skin before eating, it really doesn’t make that big of a difference.

Weber makes all sorts of great flavored Just Add Juice marinades. Collect them all!

Ahhhhhh. Nothing beats roasting chicken on my Char-Broil Big Easy. From marinating, to cooking, to cleanup, it’s just about as simple a process as you can get. And you sure cannot beat the final results. Like this lemon roasted chicken that I made just the other day. I went the whole-bird route. I had my sights set on making some delicious chicken for chicken salad sandwiches. And boy did it ever satisfy!

Lemon Roasted Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

I used fresh lemons for the marinade. Those are best, but I know, some times you just can’t find them. So reach for the bottled stuff if you have to. You’ll need about 12 tablespoons worth.

You can also make this lemon roasted chicken recipe on your Char-Broil Big Easy using split chicken breasts, legs, wings, or whatever you chicken pieces you have. A whole chicken is a little more challenging to marinate so feel free to use smaller pieces. I used a big, deep resealable container, but you can also use a super-big Ziploc baggie if you decide to go big.

Roast up a batch of potatoes to serve with your chicken.

Oh let me at it! Delicious, tender, juicy chicken, packed with peppery goodness and a hint of sweetness. Sweet black pepper chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy proves what I’ve said time and time again. After all, nothing cooks chicken like the Big Easy. Add a little marinade like this sauce from Stubb’s and you’ve got tremendously flavorful chicken.

Sweet Black Pepper Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

I’d say that nine times out of ten I use split chicken breasts when cooking chicken on the Big Easy. Because they don’t ever dry out, a problem you can run into with boneless chicken breasts. So, any time I see them on sale I pick up a few family packs and get to cooking, like this Sweet Black Pepper Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy. I love to have them on hand. Also, they make for an easy dinner salad: just chop up the roasted chicken and top some greens with it. Dinner. Done!

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

Chicken is my favorite thing to cook on my Big Easy. Corn-on-the-cob is my second most favorite. You can season it a million ways and no matter what, it always comes out sweet and tasty. Like this lemon pepper corn on the Char-Broil Big Easy. This is why the arrival of sweet corn season is such a happy time for me.

Lemon Pepper Corn on the Char-Broil Big Easy

You cannot screw up lemon pepper corn on the Char-Broil Big Easy. Well, you could if you let it overcook, I guess. But, it’s pretty unforgiving. If you’re not sure that it’s quite done, just life up a piece and poke a kernel with a toothpick. If the toothpick inserts with just a little resistance and the kernel ‘pops’, you’re good-to-go.

Corn-on-the-cob on the Big Easy is also great with lime pepper seasoning. As good as my garlic Old Bay corn!

I make it a point to peruse the marinade section of my local grocery store on a regular basis. One of my favorite things to make is marinated roasted chicken breasts. Sliced and served on a bed of greens, I get a healthy dinner salad that is packed with flavor. This easy Creole chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy has a light spicy flavor that didn’t overwhelm my salad.

Easy Creole Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

And as always, cooking chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy is of course, easy. I used Tony Chachere’s chicken marinade, which is a combination of Italian dressing and Cajun seasonings. The chicken came out tender and moist, just like I wanted. Perfect.

When using any kind of marinade you need to make sure it doesn’t have a high sugar content. The Big Easy cooks at a pretty high temperature and sugary marinades may burn long before whatever you are cooking gets done so steer clear of them.

Ahhhhhh. Yummy. Tender, juicy, flavorful beer n’ butter turkey on the Char-Broil Big Easy proves again that there is no better cooker when it comes to poultry. No fussing with an oven, no messes in the kitchen. Just easy and fantastic. Every single time. The injection for this turkey is incredible. I would definitely call it my ‘go-to’ for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any time I want to wow my guests with a great meal.

Beer n' Butter Turkey on the Char-Broil Big Easy

I wouldn’t change a thing about this beer n’ butter turkey on the Char-Broil Big Easy. This recipe needs no modifications, nothing. Make it as-is and you’ll be happy with every turkey you ever make.

If you’ve never injected a turkey, don’t be intimidated by the process. To ensure success, take your time, be patient and definitely use a quality injector. I use one similar to this. It is heavy-duty, made of metal. Not plastic. It has several injection needles, which is a definite must. Just load it up with the liquid and slowly inject into the turkey. And pull the needle back out SLOWLY. Or else you’ll have an injection explosion. Trust me on this. Walls, cabinets, you name it. You pull that needle out quickly and stuff is gonna fly. You’ll get the hang of it.

Also try my buttermilk-marinated turkey on the Big Easy. You’ll love my savory turkey too!.

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

This honey-glazed ham on the Char-Broil Big Easy is my go-to approach for making pre-cooked hams, just like I have many times before. You’re not really cooking the ham, you’re just heating it and adding more flavor by adding a glaze. You can use the glaze that comes with your ham (if it includes one) but I prefer to make my own, being able to make it more for my tastes. Plus, that bag of frozen glaze kind of …. scares me.

Honey-Glazed Ham on the Char-Broil Big Easy

This honey-glazed ham on the Char-Broil Big Easy could not get any easier. It’s why I load up on those cheap spiral hams whenever I can. We can get a number of meals out of a single ham, from sandwiches to omeletes.

I used a smoked spiral-sliced ham for my honey-glazed ham. You can also use a whole ham, sliced or not. But you must use one that is pre-cooked. If it’s not sliced you’ll want to score it first with a knife so that the glaze adheres to the ham. If you don’t it will just roll right on off into the bottom of the foil pouch and just sit there doing nothing, not adding flavor or anything to your ham.

Also try my southern glazed honey ham on the Big Easy.

Instructions

  • Fire up your Big Easy.
  • Remove the ham from the packaging and place on a large piece of foil. Place it like you would in the Big Easy basket. Larger hams will have to be stood on edge.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour or brush HALF of the glaze over the ham, getting some of the glaze in between the ham slices. Keep the remaining glaze warm over low heat.
  • Seal tightly in the foil, leaving the seam at the top. Transfer to the Big Easy and cook (heat) for approximately 10 minutes per pound or until the ham reaches 145 F as tested in several places.
  • Remove the basket from the Big Easy. Carefully remove the ham to a cutting board and brush with the remaining glaze. Cover with foil and let rest at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

I made a big ole batch of crazy-hot chicken wings the other day. I used Alliger’s Nuclear Chicken wing sauce. Heck yeah they were spicy. But it got me to thinking… I love chicken cooked on my Char-Broil Big Easy. I bet that using the wing sauce as a marinade for chicken would turn out fantastic. And I was right. It did.

Nuclear Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Nuclear chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy is everything you imagine. As with any poultry cooked on the Big Easy, the chicken is juicy and tender. The wing sauce adds a fantastic kick to the chicken. I honestly didn’t find it too hot at all. Now you get the heat, don’t get me wrong. But I found it quite pleasant and best of all, it had great flavor. I see no point in adding spiciness if you don’t still get great flavor. Alliger’s Nuclear wing sauce does that and then some.

Also try my Big Easy spicy roasted chicken legs.

Yard Bird Wings on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Yard Bird wings are always my go-to way of cooking wings on the Char-Broil Big Easy. And believe me, I cook (and yes, eat) a lot of chicken wings. You can’t find an easier way to make a tasty quick lunch or appetizer. Wings are like a canvas. You can paint them with whatever flavors you want, from easy bottled to fru-fru homemade.

Yard Bird Wings on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Keep in mind that you aren’t deep-frying wings. They don’t have a batter, and you’ll use very, very little oil. What you do get are just a tad crunchy, perfectly cooked, moist, tasty wings that you will not be able to stop eating. Yard Bird wings on the Char-Broil Big Easy are the way to go. They cook the same amount of time, every time with no fuss and no mess.

Oh, that reminds me. If you are using a refrigerated wing sauce, set it out on the counter when you start cooking the wings. You want the sauce to come to room temperature (or close to it) first. You do not want to douse hot wings with a cold sauce.

Texas Sriracha Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

I’m a big fan of all the marinades and anytime sauces from Stubb’s. I can’t say I have a favorite because I love them all. The Texas Sriracha sauce is packed with a little spiciness, making it perfect for marinating chicken before cooking it on the Char-Broil Big Easy. Although I’ve used the sauce for making wings, this time I opted for split chicken breasts instead. The end result is lightly spicy, very flavorful and downright pretty to boot.

Texas Sriracha Chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy

You sometimes need to be careful in choosing your marinade. You don’t want one that is loaded with sugar (real or not). The Big Easy cooks at a pretty high temperature. Sugary marinades will burn long before whatever you are cooking is done.

You won’t have that problem with the Texas Sriracha sauce from Stubb’s. You get a nice perfectly crunchy skin (you are of course welcome to cook your chicken without the skin), and perfectly tender, juicy tasty meat.
