It's too rainy to BBQ outside, so I'm going to try to BBQ my chicken in the oven. I guess that technically it won't be BBQ, but you catch my drift.
I found a recipe that sounds good - http://www.thehungrymouse.com/2009/04/13/oven-baked-bbq-chicken/ - but thought I would ask the group for suggestions or links to other recipes you've tried.
I'm cutting up a whole chicken, so not just leg quarters like the recipe above calls for.
It will be served with coleslaw and baked potatoes.
On edit: Made the recipe as it was described on the site except for adding cilantro. It turned out great. I wanted sticky BBQ, and this recipe didn't disappoint.
Now I have to figure out what to do tonight with the leftovers!

(146,218 posts)The browning on the stove top is a critical step, imo, and an instant read thermometer could make the difference between raw and dry.
If they are not brown enough, but the meat is done, you can always put the broiler on for a few minutes.
Lastly, I definitely not put cilantro on these. Parsley maybe, but I just don't think BBQ and cilantro is a good mix. Plus some people just don't like cilantro.
Have a great time!
I don't like the idea of cilantro on BBQ, either.
Will let everyone know how the recipe turns out.
