Another reason to leave your grill “dirty” after grilling is the oily crust provides some protection from rust or corrosion. Especially in that salty coastal air.

Sam!! I can’t thank you enough for explaining why you do what you do to the cuts of meats, and the grill....and you guys make things short and sweet and get to the point without dragging it out AND forgetting to show steps. I just happened to find your YT channel and can’t stop watching. I’m a newbie at grilling BUT I cannot stand chicken because it’s ALWAYS SO dry!! Maybe I’ll come back to eating chicken again. Thanks!!
Here are a couple of tips that make assembly slightly easier ru-vid.comUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . 1) One person can assemble, but if you have a buddy to help, it will make it go faster - especially steps 1-3 and 8 (the legs aren't heavy but can be difficult to hold while screwing things in). Step 8, 1st part will take some time unless you have two more hands OR are really lucky. 2) Use a socket wrench! 3) Step 7, 3rd part - the flame carry over tube has an open side, MAKE SURE THE OPEN SIDE IS FACING THE FRONT. If it's facing the back, the tube won't work. 4) Step 10, 3rd part - if you don't have small hands (I don't, they're gigantic) getting the nut on is really difficult (but not impossible). It took me about 4 hours to assemble, but I took a "union break" every 60-90 minutes and ate a quick lunch. Also, I'm really OCD so I took my time, looked at the instructions carefully, and cleaned up as I went.
This quick and simple chicken dish is phenomenal! Quick, full of flavor, easy, lean, juicy and delicious. I used dried rosemary all 3 times and it's great. Thank you for showing us this great recipe.
God exists. And there is also proof that Jesus existed, along with his disciples. And he's coming back soon. And everyone will stand before him. Every tongue will confess him as Lord. No one can escape him, whether you believe in him or not. He gave us the free will to choose. This life is a test. Only those who believe without seeing will enter the kingdom of Heaven. Jesus lives. No matter what you say. You can't change that. You will stand before him. As all will stand before him. And everyone will be judged righteously by what they choose in life. Live in sin or live by faith and for Jesus. I love you man. God bless you. Just read what I had to say and just think about it. Jesus loves you more than you can comprehend. He is eagerly waiting for you to follow him, but we have our own free will if we choose to or not. But when he comes back my friend, you cant say you weren't warned of this. Repent of your sins, read the bible and pray. Don't think you can be strong enough to do what the bible says alone, only when the holy Spirit enters your body you can do that, only when you have faith and believe and love him and is devoted to him, it is possible. If you're for the truth, pray and ask God sincerely to reveal himself to you and he will. This message is for all those who are reading it. God bless your souls!
Sam, found your channel a few weeks ago and it’s awesome! Over the years I’m always being told “ you should do a channel”, “you should open your own place”, well after binge watching just about all your shows, it’s apparent our shows would be eerily the same. Love the NO BS approach and how you show it as it happens, planned or unplanned. Thankyou.

I just wanted you to know... This is the first video I’ve watched of yours and the “give it a gentle pounding” then hearing the chuckle from someone, is what made me hit the Subscribe button 😆
You guys are fantastic. I know it's not the place to say these kind of stuff, but I like to come here and just have fun watching you cooking while life is being this harsh with me (Plus, I learn to cook more stuff so it's good). Thanks for being there C: (Sorry if my english is not perfect, I'm italian and it's not my first language)
A quick bit of foid nerdom: When you heat up the gunk on your grill it's not really being melted off. What's happening, is that the fats in the food you were cooking are polymerizing, or turning into plastic sort of. Also, on a microscopic level, the gunk is attached via tiny little holes in the metal rods themselves. The heat is causing the metal bars to expand which makes those tiny holes bigger and release the grip on the gunk.
@@michaelgabs9885 I have a simple solution .... eliminate that last god among at least 3000 others you already have eliminated. Easy peasy .... you're welcome.
The turning grill off after cooking tip is probably the best tip you have ever given. It will most likely save the lives of a few of your viewers. Nice work Sam
It really isn't. It will make you use slightly less fuel and time but say you used and acidic marinade on something you cooked on the grill, it will corrode the exposed metal while you wait until the next time you use it. even if it is not acidic it is not great. leaving food on is always a bad idea if you want the grill surface to last.
@@tatg69 I was commenting on the fact that people die from leaving their grill/oven/stove going as they eat and forget. Sam made a good point to get into the habit. Also, I am not sure what acidic marinade will persist without caramelizing or dripping off the burners after a full cook and cooldown cycle.
Sam, youve hooked us up with some delicious main courses but what are some side dishes we can spice up to bring the meal up to par? This pandemic is leavin me with some basic options that im gettin tired of real fast
Lol every night I cook some kind of delicious meat on the grill and then next to it is ALWAYS some $1 bullshit side like microwave rice, those knorr noodles, or microwaved potatoes of some sort. I hate thinking about side dishes.😂
Throw the wire brush away for sure-too many cases of people accidently ingesting one of the bristles that all too frequently fall out. Easier than you think to do, a good friend of mine wound up in surgery for one.
Just only push the wire brush one way, so that you're not bending the bristles back and forth(and thus risk breaking them off). I just always brush away from me with mine. Problem solved

This is awesome! I love the Mediterranean flavors of this! One of my favorite summertime chicken recipes is: 2 Chicken breast cut into one inch chunks Juice of 1 lime 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1/2 medium jalapeno pepper minced 2-3 cloves garlic minced 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar 2 teaspoons brown sugar 1 teaspoon ground cumin Salt as desired Marinate chicken chunks for 1-3 hours, Skewer chicken and grill until done! Trust me, you'll love this! Can be made into quesadillas, tacos, or whatever else you can imagine!
OMG you made me laugh watching this. I did this tonight. I’ve avoided cooking chicken breast because I always over cook it and it’s dry. Well, thanks to this post, I tried it tonight and it turned out perfectly. Thank you for doing this video. The family was really impressed.
Please get yourself an instant read meat thermometer and cook to temp not time. This greatly improved my cooking abilities and takes out all the guessing.
I made this for 20 people and it was awesome ... started with 7-8 lb of chicken breast, prepped it as described and let it marinade for 2 hours, grilled it fast on a very hot grill and did not overcook. When cooked, I cut it all into thick strips for everyone to make their own chicken tacos with taco fillings. Really great, the guests ate it all.
Sam my husband suggested I ✔️ out your chicken your wife loves.. we made it twice☆ I dig you & your badass methods~ thanks for keeping it simple & real 👍🏻
I don’t know how I came across this channel, but after a few evenings of watching the channel, I worked up the courage to try this chicken recipe on my new gas grill. After finishing, I realized I’ve been cooking chicken wrong my whole life! I flattened the chicken and got it nice and even. I was amazed at how well it cooked and the grill marks blended with the rosemary and red pepper flakes made the final product look amazing. I cut the meat up into strips and then once again into bite-sized morsels. The flavor is great! Now, like most of you, I’m on to the next video excited to try something else here. I’m not the greatest cook, but this simple chicken recipe has leveled me up a notch for sure! Many thanks!!! 👍😎
FYI Sam, the small openings in the gas tubes are clogging up and that is the reason not all sides light on fire properly. You need to scrape off gunk that has built up on the openings to allow the gas to properly flow through! Then burn off the last meal at the same time. Also always marinade the grates with some type of cooking high temp oil after you cleaned them just like a hot iron skillet the end result is you spend less time cleaning and if you prefer oil the gas tubes lightly as well. The flame is always hottest at the top not the bottom! Happy grilling!!
Just made this, it was damn delicious! Great flavor. And like all chicken recipes, it turns out so much better when you don't overcook the chicken and it turns out tender and juicy. Use a thermometer people!
Best damn chicken I've ever grilled! I didn't have a lemon. Olive oil, kosher salt, fresh cracked pepper, minced garlic (cause I'm too lazy to peel fresh garlic), a little granulated garlic and red pepper flakes. I beat it, put it in a bowl to marinate while my charcoal grill was getting ready. Cooked it exactly the way you said. It is so full of flavor and juicy. This is the only way I will do grilled chicken for the rest of my life. Thank you!
He does actually mean 45 degrees. If you turn in 90 you get ugly square markings. 45 degrees gives you those beautiful diamond lines on the chicken. Another little tip...lay the chicken on the grill with the top of the piece facing 2 o’clock. Then turn it so it’s straight up and down...top facing 12. Happy grilling!!!
@@melev23 You place the breasts on the grill 45deg to the grill, but you turn the chicken 90 deg to get the proper grill marks...45 left + 45 right = 90 degrees
Loved your process for cooking chicken and especially your grill cleaning tip. I never thought about using the 10 minutes before cooking to both heat the grill and clean it. I am however, always concerned about using a metal bristle brush to clean as there is the possibility of of unseen bristles finding their way to your food. Check with Greg Rempe. One of his monthly interviews is with a guy who is on a big campaign to ban metal bristle grill brushes. Love your videos.
I watched a video about a lady that swallowed one and did a lot of damage and i got super paranoid about it. A few days later someone brought some grilled food to work. Guess who ended up with a grill bristle in his gum? Now I’m super duper paranoid lol i triple quadruple check the grill and food for bristles.
I remember watching Sam's cooking on a local SD channel! Loved watching because his recipes were so simple and kinda quirky like his instant noodles stir fry! Didn't know he was so popular on youtube!
I cook a lot of chicken and it always comes out so so. I can never half a breast correct, until now. I cut with the grain until now. I have only left my burners run on high and forgot about them for twenty or thirty times until now. You are awesome Sam! You never make us feel like the complete morons that we are. Thank you (and my family thanks you) for making me a better dad cook!
Just tried it tonight! Really good and super easy. My butterfly job did not look like yours but tasted awesome. Thanks so much for showing me how to do this!!!
Honestly the BEST way to grill chicken! So perfect and tender every time. The only thing that was causing me anxiety was using zip lock bags every time to flatten the chicken.. I’ve found that using a baking wax sheet works just as well - for all you sustainability folks out there 😉
I made this grilled chicken for a group of friends, and I got a lot of compliments. My confidence is so high now that I'm making it again. I invited family over for tomorrow. Thank you so much Sam for making this video. I can't wait to see them enjoy a juicy, tender, delicious, grilled chicken breast.
@samthecookingguy here's a trick for cleaning the grill that I just learned today. It works quite well: when you're burning off the gunk on the grill grates themselves, first crumple up a sheet of foil a bit (not into a tight ball, just enough to put some wrinkles on it) and then uncrumple it back into a sheet. This stiffens up the foil a bit. Put this uncrumpled sheet over the grill, and then bring down the lid, and blast it on high. The foil reflects heat back down on the grate and holds the hot gases on the grate itself better than if it were to all just rise through the gaps between the grate bars. After a few minutes, all the stuff on the grate will have burned to ash, much faster than if you were to try this without the foil.
I find myself making more and more of your recipes over all others I watch. Thank you and BTW I cooked that salmon you made the other day and it was freaking fabulous!! I have the chicken kabobs on the grill now you made with the salmon.
lol before I even started watching the video I was ready to comment about the 5 minutes not including prep work. Also, the last time I took the food off and cranked the gas to clean the grates, I forgot about it. Thankfully the tank was fairly empty but I now use the preheat phase to clean the grill. Another gem, thanks for sharing.
Don’t know if it’s a Mexican thing or where we got it from but my whole family will turn the fire up to burn off old gunk but scrape it down with half an onion.
OMG using a blow torch to light your grill made me fall off my chair with laughter. Love watching your videos for both the great food you cook and the comedy. LMAO!!!
I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time first he says “ give it a gently pounding clean it up boys” than says out come the kid 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 this guy is legend
Sam, here's a tip. Next time you finish cooking on the grill, put a piece of aluminum foil on the grate, reflective side down, and shut the grill off and close the top. The residual heat and reflective heat from the foil will clean the grates. Next time you use the grill, toss the foil.

No one: Sam: “and while I used sort of Mediterranean-ish flavors, you very easily could’ve used Asian flavors. and while I used of Mediterranean flavors, you very easily could’ve used Asian flavors.”
I fucking love you, I started watching you years ago and then life got busy, my son got me hooked on you again and you have brought life back into our kitchen. Thanks Sam and keep on fu$&ing cooking❤️
A note on that wire brush you used there...DON'T use those! My sort of step mom had to have emergency surgery because a piece of the wire got stuck in her throat in a very bad spot! Just sayin so people are aware and might want to use something else.
Today is Father's Day and, father (Me), will be doing the BBQing as always, and this is what I choose to make on my special day. We're empty nesters so the kids have no say at my BBQ. Too bad for them. This I know will be delicious. Love the show and the recipes here in Ontario,Canada.
12:15 "And while I've used sort of Mediterranean-ish flavors, you very easily could have used Asian flavors" 12:22 "And while I used Mediterranean flavors for this, you very easily could have used Asian flavors" He just wants to say "you could use any flavors for this, African, European, American, Asian, and to be more specific YOU name it!"
