Its been freaking hot here and its supposed to be freaking hot for the next couple weeks. So eating light at night has been the theme.

I see that roadside chicken is popular here. I have had the recipe for several years, found on a food blog, but have never made it. Let me tell you it wont be the last time.

Here's the chicken and grilled corn salad recipes:

ROADSIDE CHICKEN
1 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup veg oil
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1 TBS Sea or Kosher salt
1 TBS white sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp celery salt

Blend everything together, and marinate 2-4 hours. You will need this mixture for basting while cooking. I'd suggest making a fresh batch and not to use the mix that you used to marinate the chicken in

Grilled Corn Salad

6 ears of corn, grilled and charred. (cool completely prior to mixing with other ingredients.)
2 bell peppers (any color will do) chopped to size of corn kernels
bunch of cherry, pear, or grape tomatoes quartered (started with a small container)
1 Avocado cut into 1/4"-3/8" chunks
1 small red onion finely diced (scallions could be used too)
3-4 Garlic cloves minced
1 jalapeno finely diced
3 limes - juice and zest
Bunch of Cilantro chopped
1 can Black Beans (red or chili beans even garbanzo would work)
1/2 cup EVOO
Salt, Black pepper, Chipotle powder to taste
 
Now onto the photos...

Grill the corn. 30-40 minutes indirect in the mini as it warmed up. Then pull the pot and direct heat until you get the char on all sides. When you here a pop its time to turn!

So thats tha salad, onto the chicken. Same thing used the mini indirect until the chicken hit 130°-135°, then pulled the pot and direct on the grill until the thermawand said 165°. Basted every 10-15 while indirect cooking, every 5 minutes while direct grilling. I should mention that I marinated the chicken overnight.

Awesome cook and great pictures Case! I'm going to look for one of those string processors. We have the KA Processor but it's kind of a pain to wash, particularly for small jobs. Way to go.
