Did this cook on Sunday. Had some chicken leg quarters in the freezer. Sided them up with baked gold potatoes and Grilled Butternut Squash with fresh Ricotta and Toasted Pine Nuts. It was a really cold evening here on Sunday. Got down into the low 20's here at the house. A cold evening for us, and I know a balmy one for some of you across the country. Here's the pic's.
Toasted the Pine Nuts and cubed the squash. Chopped up some fresh sage.

Sunday's bread.

Put the squash on the indirect side of split zone for about 30 minutes.

I marinated the chicken for two hours in water, salt, brown sugar garlic and thyme. Chicken on over direct heat for about 5 minutes a side. Then moved to indirect.

Moved to indirect side and applied my bbq sauce. I made the sauce on the stove so I didn't take any pictures. Used ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, bacon drippings. thyme, chopped onion, garlic, red wine vinegar, dry mustard and cumin.

Moved squash over to direct heat for a few minutes.

Chicken about done.

Topped squash with Ricotta and sage. My camera was outside in the grilling area with me and got cold. Had a heck of a time with it fogging up. This shot a little "foggy".



Had fun with this cook. Chicken was very flavorful, moist and the skin was crispy. Will definitely do this one again. I baked the gold potatoes on my JJ for an hour. No photo of this. Thanks for looking everyone!
