When I mentioned to a friend that I was going to be grilling Flat Back Chicken she looked at my kind of strange and wondered what I was talking about. So I decided this would definitely be a video and recipe I needed to share with all of you.

Thawing this week I grabbed a whole chicken from Shopease Foods to use to lay flat on my bbq grill with a rub we love to use.



Ingredients For Rub
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Paprika
1 TBSP Pepper
1 TBSP Salt
1 TBSP Chili Powder
1 TBSP Garlic Powder
1 TBSP Onion Powder
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper


1. Cut back bone out of chicken so the chicken can lay flat on the grill.
2. Apply rub generously all over chicken. I also put butter in under the skin of the chicken to make sure it stayed moist 
3. Light up your bbq grill so that it is at approximately 350*. 
4. Grill chicken breast side down for about 5 to 10 minutes to get grill marks on the chicken then turn over and cook for about 35 to 45 minutes on the other side. 


Have you ever done a flat back chicken on the grill? I find that it cooks more evenly when we put the whole chicken on the grill as a flat back.
