EASY BBQ CHICKEN MARINADE



Easy Bbq Chicken Marinade image

Came up with this one on the fly. This quantity of ingredients will be sufficient marinade for 4 drumsticks. I like to use zipper-seal bags for marinating because the air can be removed so that the meat is surrounded by marinade, which means I can throw it into the fridge and forget about it until cooking time. I get a nice, even marinade on every piece without any extra fuss. Plus, it is one less dish to wash after.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h3m

Yield 1/2 cup, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon barbecue sauce or 1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 tablespoon steak sauce (I used HP)
1/2 clove garlic
1 pinch cayenne

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Put chicken pieces into a large zipper-seal bag.
  • Pour marinade into bag.
  • Seal bag, making sure to remove most of the air so that the chicken has lots of contact with the marinade.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour or more before grilling.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For best results, use a whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces. Bone-in, skin-on chicken will give you the most flavor.
  • Make sure your chicken is well-marinated: The longer you marinate your chicken, the more flavorful it will be. Marinate your chicken for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible.
  • Use a variety of spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices to create a unique flavor for your chicken. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Preheat your grill: Before you start grilling your chicken, make sure your grill is preheated to medium-high heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the grill and will give it a nice sear.
  • Cook your chicken over indirect heat: Once your grill is preheated, move the chicken to the indirect heat zone. This will help to cook the chicken evenly without burning it.
  • Baste your chicken: Basting your chicken with the marinade or a barbecue sauce will help to keep it moist and flavorful. Baste the chicken every few minutes, or until it is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Chicken barbecue is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're having a backyard barbecue or a family dinner, chicken barbecue is sure to be a hit. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make delicious chicken barbecue at home.
