CHICKEN WITH BBQ SAUCE FOR A CROWD











CHICKEN WITH BBQ SAUCE FOR A CROWD

A nice bbq chicken recipe to try !
BBQ Chicken Recipe INGREDIENTS
  • 1/2 c. cooking oil
  • 1/2 c. melted butter
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 2 hot peppers, chopped (or to taste)
  • 3 cans (8 oz.) tomato sauce
  • 2 cans II water (rinse above)
  • 1 No. 2 can tomato puree
  • 1/2 bottle chili sauce
  • 1/4 tsp. smoke sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 bottle Worcestershire sauce
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp. cider vinegar
  • 1 c. sweet port or Marsala wine
  • 2 tbsp. prepared mustard
  • 1/2 c. brown sugar (or, to taste)
  • 4 slices lemon, seeded
  • 2 tbsp. salt
  • 1 tbsp. pepper
  • 1 bay leaf (remove after 1 hour)
BBQ Chicken Recipe INSTRUCTIONS
Soak fryers or broilers (2 lb. to 3 1/2 lb, split) in salt water for two hours; use one-half cup salt to a quart of water for the brine. Broiler or fryer chickens may be used, either split or whole, depending upon size. Guinea hens also make a wonderful presentation. Plan on 1/2 of an average sized chicken per person.

Combine remaining ingredients for barbecue sauce in a large pot. Cover and simmer slowly for about 4 hours or until thick. If desired, a hand blender may be used to smooth out the sauce, but this is optional.

Makes enough to barbecue six to sixteen chickens; any remaining (unused) sauce may be frozen. Separate sauce into small batches so as not to contaminate the entire batch when basting.

Drain chickens, pat dry and brush well with salad oil. Rub chickens thoroughly with a mixture of salt, pepper, and a generous amount of paprika.

Place chickens on grill over moderately-hot coals. Broil, turning very often and brushing or mopping with a mixture of 1 stick of butter, 1 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup vinegar. Every five minutes is not too often.

Broil until the drumstick bone can be pulled out clean. Now swab with heated barbecue sauce, turning constantly for about 10 minutes more. The expert in this case, broils chickens until almost done, turning every five minutes, swabbing with butter-vinegar-oil mixture, to ensure inside doneness without over-browning the outside; then sauce is swabbed right at the very last.

Takes about 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size of the chickens. Split chickens and guinea hens will take much less time to cook...and the bbq chicken recipe is ready...enjoy it !

Grilled BBQ Chicken (Barbecue Chicken Recipe)


 

Grilled BBQ Chicken (Barbecue Chicken Recipe)

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 4-5-pound package bone-in chicken thighs from ALDI (see Recipe Notes)
  • kosher salt, to season
  • 2 cups Burman’s BBQ sauce of choice (found at ALDI)
  • for serving, as desired: extra Burman’s BBQ sauce of choice, freshly snipped chives, grilled corn, potato salad, macaroni salad, coleslaw, cornbread, etc.
for the grilled BBQ chicken marinade/brine:

  • 1 16-ounce beer of choice (see Recipe Notes)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
for the grilled BBQ chicken dry rub:
  • 3 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • optional: 1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
INSTRUCTIONS

Chicken: 
If you’d like to make BBQ chicken without the skin, tear the skin off of each chicken thigh. If you’d like to make skin-on BBQ chicken, simply trim off any excess skin or fat.
Dry rub: Add all listed ingredients to a small bowl or jar. Stir to combine. Set aside, or store on your spice rack in an airtight container for up to 2 months. 
Grilled BBQ Chicken:

Brine the chicken: 
Add the beer (or buttermilk) to a large bowl or ziptop bag. Add in the kosher salt and stir to combine. Add the chicken, submerging all the parts in the beer mixture. Set aside to brine for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 days. If brining longer than 1 hour, be sure to store the chicken in the brine in an airtight container or ziptop bag in the refrigerator. If I have the time, I usually try to brine for at least 12 hours. 

Preheat the grill: 
Prepare your grill for indirect cooking, creating a zone of direct high heat & a second zone of indirect heat. If using a gas grill, begin preheating at least 15 minutes before grilling. If using charcoal, light the charcoal at least 30 minutes prior to grilling. (To learn more about zone grilling, be sure to check out this post.)

Season the chicken:
 Once the grill is hot, remove the chicken from the brine, patting off any excess moisture with a paper towel. Season generously with salt & the BBQ chicken dry rub. If using skin-on chicken, work your fingers under the skin to season both sides of the skin. 

Grill the barbecue chicken: 
Place the seasoned chicken on the indirect side of the grill (skin side up, if using skin-on chicken), as close to the fire as possible without being over the direct heat. Cook the chicken, rotating the pieces 180 degrees every 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken (without hitting the bone) registers a temperature of 150 degrees F. Depending on the size of your chicken & the temperature of your grill, this could take as little as 15 minutes or up to 40 minutes. 

Baste the chicken: 
Move the chicken over direct heat. If using skin-on pieces, flip the chicken so the skin-side is down. Use a pastry brush to baste the BBQ chicken with BBQ sauce & cook for 2 minutes. Flip the chicken & cook for 2 minutes more. If using skinless chicken, baste the second side with BBQ sauce; if using skin-on chicken, I suggest not applying BBQ sauce to the skin to keep it nice & crispy. Repeat 2-3 times, until your chicken is as charred & saucy as desired and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken (without hitting the bone) registers a temperature of 160 degrees F. Remove from the grill and set aside to rest for 5-10 minutes. Carryover heat will cause the internal temperature to continue to rise as it rests. The chicken will be ready to serve once an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken (without hitting the bone) registers a temperature of 165 degrees F. 
Serve your grilled BBQ chicken with extra BBQ sauce and your favorite summer side dishes. Enjoy the  Grilled BBQ Chicken (Barbecue Chicken Recipe) recipe !!!
