The Chicken Lady & Grill Mistress Join Forces
Though she was at first reluctant to take on the title, the Chicken Lady (aka Stacie) has joined forces with the Grill Mistress (aka Meghan), and together they have revealed the do’s and don’ts of grilling chicken.
If you want the low down on burgers, dogs, and steak, we’ve got you covered in our Grilling 101 episode. But we know how much you love chicken — and so do we. That’s why we took an entire episode to dig into everything from the best cuts to buy for grilling to the merits of marinading, the many reasons why spatchcocking is a must to the truth about beer can chicken.
We — ahem, the dynamic duo — get into it all, in the name of a tastier summer.
Here are all the recipes and ideas from this week’s convo:
Dry Rubes Are Better Than Marinades (Bon App agrees)
Stacie’s favorite all-natural, not-from-concentrate bottled lemon juice and lime juice
Stacie’s best ever chicken marinade (aka her “Always Juicy” marinade)
Meghan’s easiest BBQ Chicken in the oven
Trade Street Jam (we love their Smoked Peach and Strawberry Chipotle Fig jams for grilling)
Stacie’s Peachy Sriracha Sticky Wings from Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner
Stacie’s latest book, Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner: 50 Winning Ways to Cook It Up! is packed with all the modern, vibrant chicken recipes you need to solve dinner using everyone’s favorite protein.
