It's not the dish that impresses, but the preparation.
One year, my family and I were at my middle brother's house for a summer time visit. He had a party and grilled chicken. My brother never really learned how to cook and it showed. People barely touched it and there was a ton of it left over.
Fast forward another year and he wants to do the same thing. I offer to cook so he can attend to other more important party affairs. The only thing I did differently was I started with fresh good quality chicken and not mass frozen bagged stuff from Tyson. I also brought my instant read thermometer. Otherwise it was just salt and pepper on the chicken, although I used a ton more than he did.
Same number of people, same amount of chicken... There were NO left overs. I also made my cubed potatoes, those were gone too.
It was all technique. I used virtually the same ingredients he had the year prior.
