Chicken skin

Have had my egg for about a year and really love it. The only trouble that I have encountered so far is with chicken and turkey. Everytime that I have made either of these the skin has been very rubbery. What can I do to crisp the skin up and make it edible?

Being a Food Network junkie, Bobby Flay has insisted, the best way to get crispy skin, is low/medium grill heat (direct), skin side down, and let it be for a good while.
Works for me everytime. -
You don't say what set up and temps you are using, but I'm guessing your temp is too low. 350-400 is where I do my chicken, direct or indirect. -RP

Dust with corn starch it really helps.

350 with direct setup

Good to see another Cat fan on board, you'll do fine with that setup.
