Instructions
- For the sauce: Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until caramelized to golden, about 6-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the ketchup, marmalade, lemon juice, mustard, and salt, stirring to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring regularly, for 20 minutes. Season with hot sauce according to taste.
- Prepare a charcoal fire with the coals heaped in the center of the grill.Lightly oil the grill rack. Arrange the chicken, skin side down, around the perimeter of the grill rack. Do not place the chicken directly over the coals. Cover the grill. Cook for 35 minutes, turning the chicken over once. Generously brush the chicken with the sauce and turn again. Cover and cook for another 10 minutes. Generously brush the chicken again, then cover and cook until no traces of pink remain when the thickest parts of the chicken are cut, about another 10 minutes. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
