Grilled Huli Huli Chicken, a popular Hawaiian-style barbecued chicken, basted with a honey and brown sugar sweetened, soy and pineapple barbecue sauce.
Grilled Huli Huli Chicken
I don't know about y'all, but the last couple of months I have been busier than a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs! Between buying a new house, moving, renovating the old house for sale and now that summer's rolled around, spending a lot more time with the grandkid's on summer vacation too... I truly don't know if I'm coming or going anymore. I sure could use a vacation of my own - Florida beaches here I come!
If you've ever been on a Florida vacation and done the luau show and dinner somewhere, you have likely had some form of this Hawaiian-style barbecued chicken. I've never been to Disney where we didn't go to one either at the Polynesian Hotel or up the road at the Wantilan Luau at Universal Orlando.

Though recipes vary a little bit around the net, this is the way that I like to do it - beginning first with a simple brine and then applying the basting sauce - just a bit different from most recipes. Typically Huli Huli is made using whole leg quarters, though I prefer to cut them into individual thighs and drumsticks myself. Any cut of chicken may be used of course, even the ever popular boneless, skinless chicken breasts, although you will need to reduce cooking time significantly on those. Depending on their size, those generally will be cooked through after 6 to 8 minutes on each side. Here's how to make it.
