Weather information for Captiva Island, Florida. Perhaps you already know that Captiva is subtropical, that its location miles into the Gulf of Mexico moderates the climate year-round, so it's never sweltering hot in the summer and never bitter cold in the winter.
I refer to these directions when grilling the leg quarters. I leave skin on & close grill while grilling the 3 minutes per side. Them move to indirect heat for 35 minutes and baste both sides grilling for the last 10 minutes.
Boil a pot of water on the stove, while the coals are heating up. Place chicken quarters into the boiling pot and boil for about 20 minutes. The skin will have a yellowish cast and the insides will still have red juices. Taking this step reduces the grill cooking time. Place the chicken quarters onto the grill.
