A whole chicken cooks best with moderate indirect heat. Pat it dry, season the skin and cavity, then preheat the grill to 175 to 190°C. Switch off the burners beneath the chicken and keep the outer burners running.

Barbecue chicken thighs are a good choice for grilling because they contain more fat than chicken breast and stay juicy more easily. The key is to control heat instead of cooking only over strong flame. Chicken thighs need enough time for the inside to cook through while the outside develops color, light char, and barbecue flavor.

The time required to barbecue chicken thighs on a gas grill depends on the thickness of the meat and whether the thighs are boneless or bone-in. With proper temperature control, chicken thighs usually take about 12–16 minutes to cook on a gas grill.

Barbecuing chicken thighs on a gas grill is a reliable way to achieve tender meat with a crisp outer surface. Gas grills offer precise temperature control and stable heat distribution, which helps chicken cook evenly without drying out. Well-constructed grills using stainless steel burners and durable cooking grates maintain consistent heat, improving grilling performance.
