Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Prick potatoes 4–5 times with a fork. Wrap each tightly in foil. Set on grill grates.

  2. Step 2

    Mix smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and oil in a small bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Pat chicken dry. Rub the spice mixture all over skin and flesh. Let sit 2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Heat grill to medium-high. Place chicken skin-side down on oiled grates; do not move for 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Flip chicken. Cook 5–6 minutes more until skin crisps and internal temp reaches 165°F.

  6. Step 6

    Unwrap foil potatoes carefully. Serve hot alongside chicken with butter and salt.
