For Chicken: Prepare a barbecue fire for indirect cooking and position the grilling rack 4 to 6 inches from heat.

Rub the chicken pieces lightly with oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.

For the initial browning, place the chicken pieces skin side down directly over the hot coals (you will move them later, for indirect cooking).

Turn frequently for about 10 minutes, until browned on both sides.

Have a spray bottle of water at hand to douse flare-ups.
