Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, milk, 2 tablespoons salt, and 2 tablespoons pepper with a fork until smooth. In another large bowl, stir together the flour, 1/4 cup salt, 5 teaspoons pepper, garlic, and mesquite seasoning.
- Fill a large heavy skillet or wok halfway full with oil. Heat to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). Use a fork to pick up one chicken strip at a time, and dip it into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, back into the egg mixture, and into the flour mixture again. Place coated strips into the hot oil to fry. Do not over crowd, just cook in batches. Once chicken is browned on one side, flip over, and brown on the other side.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Butter one 12x20 inch glass baking dish, or two 9x13 inch baking dishes. Pour enough barbeque sauce into the dish to coat the bottom. Arrange fried chicken strips in rows in the prepared dish. Pour remaining sauce over the top.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sauce is caramelized onto the chicken.

POLENTA WITH PARMESAN AND OLIVE OIL-FRIED EGGS
If you've ever decided that cold cereal is a good dinner, here's another, far better option. Soft and steaming, with plenty of salt and pepper mixed in and perhaps some grated cheese applied at the end, a bowl of polenta or grits is deeply satisfying and requires not much more than a pot and a spoon to prepare. And topping the buttery, cheesy polenta with eggs fried in olive oil makes for a dish that is far more elegant and luxurious than its simple ingredients would imply.

Steps:
- Add about 1-inch water to a medium saucepot over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add the polenta to the chicken stock and stir to combine.
- Place into a bowl and place over the simmering water to act as a double boiler. Once it starts to get soft, after about 5 minutes, add the mascarpone, 2 large tablespoons Parmesan cheese and 2 large tablespoons butter. Stir to combine and allow to slowly cook for about 40 to 50 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the polenta starts to become too hard, add more liquid, chicken stock or water, as needed.
- Place a saute pan over medium heat and add 1 large tablespoon butter. Add the chanterelles and evenly space them in the pan to not overcrowd. Season the mushrooms with salt, to taste. Add the shallots, garlic and 6 to 8 sprigs thyme and allow the mushrooms to caramelize.
- Place another medium saute pan over medium heat and add 1 heaping tablespoon unsalted butter and melt, not letting the butter foam or burn. Gently add the egg to the melted butter, season with salt and slowly cook, about 2 minutes. Repeat with second egg.
- Place a spoonful of polenta in the middle of each dish. Top with an egg, surround with caramelized mushrooms, parsley leaves, shaved Parmesan, and shaved truffle, to taste. Season with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
- Rinse the chicken parts thoroughly. In a 10-quart stockpot, combine the onion, carrot, garlic, thyme, salt, bay leaf, peppercorns, and 1 gallon cold water. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat, skimming any foam and impurities that rise to the surface. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 hours, skimming the surface as necessary. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer, discarding the solids.

Tips:
- Use a flavorful marinade: The key to great BBQ chicken is a flavorful marinade. Be sure to use a marinade that contains acidic ingredients like lemon juice or vinegar, as well as herbs and spices. This will help to tenderize the chicken and give it a delicious flavor.
- Cook the chicken over indirect heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. You can create indirect heat by setting up a two-zone fire in your grill. Place the chicken on the side of the grill that does not have any coals or flames directly underneath it.
- Baste the chicken frequently: This will help to keep the chicken moist and prevent it from burning. You can use a variety of basting liquids, such as BBQ sauce, melted butter, or olive oil.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: The best way to check if the chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The chicken is cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
BBQ chicken polenta with fried egg is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is tender and flavorful, the polenta is creamy and cheesy, and the fried egg adds a richness and depth of flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
