BARBECUE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Rinse chicken halves in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place chicken in a large bowl or baking dish, coat with Italian dressing and evenly season with Neely's Barbecue Seasoning. For best results, allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• If cooking inside: Take the chicken out of the refrigerator and brush chicken with Neely's Barbecue Sauce.
• Place into a preheated 350 degree F oven for 45 minutes.
• If grilling outside: Thirty minutes before you're ready to cook, take the chicken out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature. Preheat the grill to a medium temperature, about 275 degrees F preferably over hickory and charcoal.
• Place the chicken halves on grill, meat side down. Cover grill and cook for about 50 minutes. Flip chicken over and let it brown until the chicken becomes golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. The wing and the drumstick should become very tender and will easily pull away at the joints. Brush the chicken with Neely's Barbecue Sauce during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
• Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, except the oil and salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Add all ingredients to a bowl and stir until combined. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
• In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Cook uncovered, stirring frequently, for 1 hour 15 minutes.

GRANDDADDY'S CAROLINA BBQ CHICKEN

Steps:

• Melt the margarine in the quart of vinegar over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Stir in the red pepper flakes.
• OVEN METHOD: Dip chicken pieces in the vinegar sauce and place skin-side up in a greased metal 9x13" pan or 2 pans if necessary. Bake in a 400° oven, spooning a little of the vinegar mixture over the chicken pieces every 15 minutes or so, for 1 hour, or until chicken is well done. Switch to broiler for 5-10 minutes to crisp and brown the skin on the chicken pieces. Place chicken pieces on serving platter, and combine pan drippings with remaining vinegar sauce on the stove and bring to a boil. Serve with the chicken and Texas toast.
• GRILL METHOD: Make a nice bed of charcoal and position grill rack high over it, so the heat is not too intense. Dip chicken pieces in the vinegar sauce and place on grill, turning frequently. Continue to dip in the sauce each time you turn the pieces. Grill slowly until chicken is cooked through and skin is brown and crispy. Heat sauce to boiling and serve with chicken and Texas toast.
• This dish is traditionally served with biscuits or thick bread for dipping in the sauce, called "sopchkin."
