BBQ & Grill

Barbecued Chicken

You'll want to make this easy, sweet-and-tangy recipe all summer long.

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • ⅓ cup cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup light-brown sugar
  • ¼ cup molasses
  • 1 cut-up chicken (3 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • coarse salt and ground pepper

Directions:

  • Heat grill to medium. Simmer sauce ingredients (first 7 ingredients listed above) in a small saucepan over medium heat until reduced to about 1 1/4 cups, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Divide barbecue sauce between two bowls; use one for basting and set aside the other for serving.
  • In a large bowl, toss chicken with vegetable oil; season well with coarse salt and ground pepper.
  • Lightly oil grates; place chicken on grill. Cover grill; cook, turning frequently, until chicken registers 165 degrees (160 degrees for breast) on an instant-read thermometer, 10 to 15 minutes.
