Something else that works great, if you're not concerned with calories... run your fingers under the skin over the chicken breast from both ends and separate it from the flesh. Slice some thin sheets of butter and slide it under the skin. This will, in effect, baste the meat with butter while it's cooking, plus help the skin to render the fat and you'll wind up with both juicy chicken and crisp skin. Awesome pics, and loving the site.

My after school snack was anything we served in the restaurant, most of it was fried (chicken, egg rolls, biscuits, rice…) and as an eleven year old, that was A-Okay with me.  But after a couple of years of after school snacks, I was “over” chicken… or as my friend PJ might say “Chicken and I broke up.”  I do still love fried chicken on occasion, but generally I have a love-hate relationship with chicken. So imagine my surprise when I started craving BBQ chicken. Usually when my stomach wants BBQ, I think of ribs or pulled pork or maybe brisket. But chicken? I don’t crave chicken. (Well, except for an occasional perfect roast chicken).  [...] [...] When I was a kid, my parents owned a fried chicken restaurant for a couple of years (”TJ’s Fried Chicken”… I don’t know who TJ was, they bought the business with the name).  I ate a little too much chicken during those years.  I would go to the restaurant after school to help out cleaning up and sometimes taking orders.
