How to BBQ the best cedar wrapped chicken

Cedar wraps are a great way of adding that wood flavor to your chicken

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Gourmet Cedar Wraps
• Boneless chicken breast
• Barbecue
• Tooth picks or twine

1. Soak the cedar wraps in warm water over night or for a few hours until pliable.
   
   You'll know if they're not ready when they crack and break into little pieces.

2. Cut the chicken into pieces small enough so that the wrap can completely cover the chicken.

3. Use wither kitchen twine or a tooth pick to secure the wraps around the meat.

4. If you are using a charcoal grill you will need to setup the coals for indirect cooking. Simply put a rectangular drip pan in the center and place the coals around it.
   With a gas grill simply preheat the grill and leave the center burner off while cooking.

5. BBQ the wrapped chicken over indirect heat until meat is cooked through.

6. Remove the wraps from the grill and allow to cool.

7. Cut or break away the cedar wrapping from the meat and serve.

Tips & Warnings

• Spray some PAM or olive oil on the inside of the wrap to ensure that the chicken does not stick to the wrap.
• Failing to use indirect heat when cooking will result in the cedar wrap burning to charcoal before the meat is cooked through and ruining the dish.
