EASY OVEN BARBEQUED (BARBECUED) CHICKEN



Easy Oven Barbequed (Barbecued) Chicken image

Is this the very best barbequed chicken you ever tasted? Nope.... but it's pretty darn good! It's also about as easy as any scratch entree recipe you'll ever make. I prepared it a few nights back when I couldn't come up with anything for supper until late in the day -- that's when I remembered the frozen chicken (cut up) in my freezer. If the chicken is still half-frozen even after some defrosting in the microwave, this recipe still works fine.

Provided by Bone Man

Categories     Chicken

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 chicken, cut up (skin on)
12 ounces barbecue sauce (1 bottle)
1 tablespoon seasoning salt
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Pre-heat your oven to 350-degrees F.
  • Dump the cut up chicken parts (you can use all of one kind, such as thighs or drumsticks if you wish -- just use about three pounds or a little more, of chicken) into a large mixing bowl. Melt the butter in the microwave and pour it all over the chicken (if the chicken is really cold the butter will re-solidify and that's okay.).
  • Sprinkle the seasoning salt all over the chicken and blend the chicken parts around until they are evenly covered with the butter and seasoned salt. I don't bother to trim the chicken -- it really makes little difference whether you do or not. You can also add a little garlic powder and/or herbs if you like those flavors -- a little rosemary would be terrific.
  • Prepare a roasting pan (or large casserole dish) by placing a rack in the bottom (or anything else, such as an ovenproof plate) which will keep the chicken off the bottom. Add the water to the bottom of the roasting pan. Lay out the chicken on the rack. Cover the roaster with a lid or aluminum foil and bake for one hour at 350-degrees F.
  • At the end of the hour, uncover the chicken and brush on the barbeque sauce until the chicken parts are well-covered. Don't worry too much about the undersides. Re-set the oven to 250-degrees F. and bake the chicken for another full hour (add another 1/2 cup of water if the roasting pan is dry -- this steams the chicken and gets it really tender.) Serve with side dishes (I like steamed asparagus and microwave-baked potatoes.).
  • I like to serve the chicken with additional barbeque sauce at the table. My three favorite commercial sauces (in order of preference) are Kroger's hickory sauce (store brand), Sweet Baby Ray's sauce, and Open Pit (regular.).

Tips:

  • To achieve crispy skin and juicy meat, start by patting the chicken dry with paper towels before seasoning and cooking.
  • Make sure to evenly coat the chicken with the BBQ sauce or marinade to ensure a flavorful experience throughout.
  • If using a wet marinade, allow the chicken to soak for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight to infuse maximum flavor.
  • For a smokier flavor, consider using a smoker box or adding liquid smoke to the marinade or BBQ sauce.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out during cooking, baste it with the BBQ sauce or marinade every 15-20 minutes.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for whole chicken and 180°F (82°C) for chicken breasts or thighs.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful meat.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides such as coleslaw, baked beans, or corn on the cob for a complete BBQ experience.
