This right here is great eats. Tender, juicy, beyond flavorful, and oh…. that skin… and that beautiful color. Every bite was a dream come true. I’d make this again and again.

8 pieces chicken I prefer skin-in chicken thighs Brine see below Coating see below Vegetable oil
Place chicken into a large bowl or resealable container.
Combine the brine ingredients and add to the chicken. Toss to coat.
Slowly add enough cold water to just cover the chicken.
Cover or seal and refrigerate overnight (or up to 24 hours).
Fire up your grill for cooking with the Vortex.
Combine the coating ingredients.
Remove chicken pieces from the brine. Shake off excess then toss in the coating, cover the pieces completely.
Transfer chicken to the grill around the Vortex.
Cover and cook for 45 minutes or until chicken reaches 165 F as measured in several places.
Lightly brush with a little vegetable oil and cook another 2-3 minutes to crisp up the skin.
Remove and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
