2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves

3 pounds chicken -- quartered

Start fire in grill, placing rack 4 inches above coals (see note). Melt butter in a 1-quart saucepan over medium-low heat.

Place chicken quarters, skin side down, on hot grill rack; cook, covered with grill cover, for 15 minutes. Turn chicken over; cook, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes longer, uncovering occasionally to brush with rosemary mixture. Serve when chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
