Chef's Notes




Buy Fresh Blackberries – Fresh, ripe blackberries should be deeply colored and plump. They should be free from signs of being crushed, dented, and there should not be any mold. When picking from a bush, they should not be bright red, but a dark full reddish color and easily pulled from the plant. Much like a raspberry.
Clean your grill – Having a clean grill can help prevent sticking and just makes it a bit nicer.
Indirect and then Direct Heat – The most of the cooking time should be spent on the indirect heat and then the last several minutes on the direct heat zone.
Use a thermometer! – Use that meat thermometer to get your temp to safe chicken temperature of 165° degrees Fahrenheit.
Double the sauce – If you like extra sauce, double the sauce ingredients.
