Barbeque Chicken Recipe

For a barbeque chicken recipe the sauce is the most important ingredient. Barbequed chicken can be made in the oven or on a outdoor barbecue grill using a rotisserie for whole chicken or right on the grill when grilling chicken pieces.

This first barbeque chicken recipe is cooked on an outdoor barbeque grill and the barbeque sauce can be made with a few simple items found in most kitchens.

Ingredients for barbeque chicken:

one 3 1/2 - 4 pound roasting chicken
1 teaspoon of salt
pepper
1 - 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
1/2 cup of ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Thoroughly wash the chicken in cold water and dry with paper towel. Sprinkle salt and pepper in the body cavity and close both ends with metal skewers or by tieing. Tie both wings together over the breast and both legs together as well. Run the spit through the middle of the body cavity and secure with the holding forks. Place on the rotisserie over a medium low indirect heat and brush with the vegetable oil. Continue cooking for 1 hour.

While the chicken is grilling prepare the barbque sauce. In a small saucepan, combine all the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and continue simmering for 15 minutes. To achieve a highly glazed barbequed chicken brush this mixture on the chicken several times while cooking for another 30 - 45 minutes or until the legs can be easily moved for tender chicken.
