BBQ Chicken - Inside or Out







Having BBQ can be tough when the weather isn't always perfect. This recipe can be made outside on the grill or inside in the oven. There is no excuse for not enjoying the flavor of BBQ any time of  year. 







BBQ CHICKEN Inside or Out


Ingredients

2 chickens (or 4 whole bone-in chicken breasts) halved lengthwise
1 1/2 cups Italian dressing
1/4 cup Barbecue Seasoning
1 cup Barbecue Sauce

Directions
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 BBQ seasoning. For best results, allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

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 Barbecue sauce during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

COOKING IN THE OVEN
Take the chicken out of the refrigerator and brush chicken with Barbeque Sauce. Place into a preheated 350 degree F oven for 45 minutes.
