Weather information for Captiva Island, Florida. Perhaps you already know that Captiva is subtropical, that its location miles into the Gulf of Mexico moderates the climate year-round, so it's never sweltering hot in the summer and never bitter cold in the winter.
I refer to these directions when grilling the leg quarters. I leave skin on & close grill while grilling the 3 minutes per side. Them move to indirect heat for 35 minutes and baste both sides grilling for the last 10 minutes.
Tips. 1  Brine the chicken leg quarters before grilling for a moister cut of meat. 2  Leave the skin on the chicken to help seal moisture in when grilling. 3  For more flavor, marinade the chicken leg quarters overnight.
