I removed the water pan and cooked on the top level grate. This kept the meat pretty far from the flames and at a low temperature to let the meat slowly cook. When I usually cook on my kettle, I am usually moving the meat around quickly to prevent it from burning or cooking it indirect. Cooking it this way today, allowed me to mow my yard while the meat was cooking. When I finished mowing the front, I flipped the meat and continued mowing the backyard. After finishing the backyard, I sauced the meat and let it continue for about 5 more minutes.
This will now be my preferred way to cook chicken. None of the chicken got burned or dryed out. Keep in mind, I could accomplish this on my kettle, but I am always so busy trying to multitask that I end up slightly burning a few pieces of meat. This works out good for people like me that don't like to sit and watch the grill.
