Ingredients

1 recipe Quick and Easy BBQ Sauce (you can use regular or smoked paprika, whatever you prefer or have on hand)
2-3 pounds chicken legs, rinsed well and patted dry (I prefer boneless skinless chicken thighs). It's important to rinse them, especially if you're buying the non-frozen variety, because dark meat takes on a strong semi-fishy odor and taste when it sits in its own juices.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. ketchup
1/4 c. Worcestershire sauce
1 c. light brown sugar
1/2 c. red wine vinegar
2 1/2 Tbsp. dry mustard
2 tsp. smoked paprika
2 tsp. hot sauce (like Tabasco or Cholula)
2 tsp. Kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp. coarse freshly-ground black pepper
1/2 c. water
Instructions:
Combine ingredients in a medium bowl and use as a marinade or to baste meat while grilling.

Steps:

Reserve 1 c. of sauce and marinate chicken in the remaining sauce for 8 hours or overnight. Grill over medium heat, basting with some of the reserved sauce, until it starts to blacken and internal temperature reaches 170 (about 10 minutes per side for boneless skinless thighs, give or take a little depending on their size )Remove from heat, drizzle with remaining sauce, and cover with a loose tent of aluminum foil for about 5-10 minutes so the chicken remains juicy.

I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce, but these chicken legs were still really good.

The chicken legs were a little dry, but the sauce was amazing.

I've tried many BBQ chicken leg recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The chicken was so tender and moist, and the sauce was just the right amount of tangy and sweet.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken legs were cooked to perfection, with crispy skin and juicy, flavorful meat. The BBQ sauce was also delicious, with a perfect balance of sweetness and smokiness.
