4 Tablespoons Butter softened
1 Lemon, zested
2 Teaspoons Salt

-Using kitchen scissors or shears cut along either side of the backbone to remove it, save the backbone for stock



-Break the wishbone with your knife

-Make a shallow incision at the joint between the drumstick and thighs

-Make a shallow incision at the joint between the wings and breast

-Season inside and outside generously with salt, pepper, and brush with butter

-Pile the charcoal on one side of the grill, you don’t want the chicken to be directly over the flames.

-Place the chicken on the grill with the legs closest to the flames, but again, not over the flames

-Cover the grill and roast the chicken for 30-45 minutes, until and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh meat, reads 165F
