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 garlic and herb marinade is mixed with lemon juice to produce wonderfully seasoned chicken. A hint of garlic, a hint of lemon, and a mix of earthy herbs, this Garlic and Herb marinaded chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy is fantastic!
Keep An Eye On Your 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. Garlic and Herb marinaded chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy is still going to be great.
Weber makes all sorts of great flavored Just Add Juice marinades. I’ve also made chicken marinated in their fantastic citrus herb and lemon pepper marinades.

It’s always a good idea to keep a few spare grease trays on hand for your Char-Broil Big Easy.
