What's for supper?

That's called "spatchcock". It's a french technique and very good, you'll love it. It allows you to cook the bird much faster than if left in tact, plus easier to crisp up the skin.

Just my opinion, but: I don't think marinating in BBQ sauce will yield much of a result, as it won't penetrate the flesh. (mmmm flesh) I think you would probably enjoy it more if you marinated overnight in a Greek dressing. You could use Italian too, I guess.

I stab the chicken all over with a fork after smearing some BBQ sauce on it. I've only done that with chicken breasts mind you (both boned and boneless) and it seems to work well on those when grilling them.

I use all kinds of salad dressings for marinating steak. One of my favorite being sundried tomatoes. But I've never tried it on chicken. I may just have to this weekend!

Cool, the sun dried tomato sounds like a good idea. I believe I'll try that soon myself, thanks. Let us know how your road kill fowl turns out.

I may not use the grill. The weather forecast is for rain, rain, rain all freaking weekend *grrrr*

That's ok, I'll just do it in the oven with potatoes and onions in the bottom of the broiler pan...........heh heh
