BBQ CHICKEN LEG AND THIGHS

Steps:

BAKED BBQ CHICKEN LEGS AND THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°, and pour a ½ cup of barbecue sauce in a 9x13" casserole dish and set aside.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of Canola oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Pat legs and thighs dry with a paper towel and drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of Canola oil. Add seasoning and rub into chicken evenly on all sides.
• Taking care not to overcrowd the pan, add the chicken skin-side down, and cook 3-4 minutes without jostling. Turn the chicken over and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and place in casserole dish.
• Brush evenly with remaining barbecue sauce on both sides, cover dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove the foil, place the chicken back into the oven and increase the temperature to 375°. Bake for an addition 15 minutes. Serve and enjoy.

GRILLED BBQ CHICKEN LEGS

Steps:

• Mix all brine/marinade ingredients in a large bowl and then separate into zip lock bags and add chicken.
• Chill and marinade for at least 4 hours or more (I usually brine mine for 12 hours).
• Grill chicken on a well oiled grill until browned on all sides, turning only once, about 15 to 20 mins each side. (A good indicator that legs are being cooked well in the inside is by observing blood seeping out from the top of the legs).
• Since all grills run at different temperatures, (if possible) make sure that grill is covered first and allowed to raise to 400 degrees before uncovering the grill, oiling the racks, and placing the legs onto the grill. This will help your grilling off to a great start.
• Depending on your environment, grill your chicken without the cover as the sudden increase in heat can turn your legs to charcoal.
• Towards the end of your grilling(5-10 mins) liberally spread a bbq of your choice (I like "Sweet Baby Ray's") on to one side of the chicken. Then (if possible) place chicken legs on a top rack for indirect heat with the bbq side of the leg down and the none bbq'd side up.
• Spread the other side with bbq now and let the bbq really caramelize onto the legs for 5-10mins on indirect heat.(if you dont have a top rack, just reduce this time to 3 to 5mins).
• Now take the legs off the grill and Wah-Lah! You've just made some amazing BBQ'd legs. Bon Appetite!
• *All grills have hot spots so be mindful of these spots and switch your chicken around the grill as not to completely char them.

SUPER EASY BARBECUE CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS & THIGHS

Steps:

• PART ONE.
• In 1 or 2 oblong storage containers (depending on size of yours - I need 2) pour 1/2 - 1 cup of BBQ sauce on bottom of each container and tilt container until BBQ sauce evenly coats bottom.
• PART TWO.
• Put chicken inside Dutch Oven or other large pot with lid.
• Fill with water until water is about 2 inches higher than chicken.
• Bring to boil and cook for 15 - 20 minutes - no longer or chicken will be tough.
• Pour chicken & water into colander to drain water.
• Leaving chicken in colander turn on cool water and while holding chicken leg or thigh under water pull off skin & any fat (usually on thigh pieces).
• Place each piece into the container (for thighs place the piece meat side down - the side the bone isn't sticking out of).
• Pour rest of the BBQ sauce evenly over the chicken making sure to cover all the meat.
• Cover container and put into fridge either for the rest of the day or overnight. Because the chicken is hot it absorbs more of the BBQ sauce flavoring.
• Tip - Because the sauce hasn't been cooked I save the extra sauce in a freezer bag in the fridge till the next time & use it first to line the container bottom. It doesn't go bad.
• PART THREE.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place coated pieces on greased oblong pan.
• Bake for 40 minutes (tastes even better if done on a grill).
