How long do you bake amazing BBQ CHICKEN?

Asked by RachelZ (162points) July 16th, 2009

I was thinking I would throw in frozen chicken breasts in a glass pan at 400 degrees, for 45 minutes and just cover in BBQ sauce! WHAT DO YOU DO???

You don’t bake amazing BBQ chicken, you BBQ it.

If you start out with frozen chicken and only cook it for 45 minutes, you will end up with undercooked chicken, and burnt BBQ sauce.

Thaw it first, bake it for at least a half an hour @ 350, then drizzle the sauce over it and bake another 20 minutes to half an hour.

Beer in the chicken butt really does work well on a grill. You can also grill the chicken lightly wrapped in aluminum foil to get that rotisserie style chicken. I prefer dry rubs on chicken over sauce, with both there are lots of personal preferences. The main thing I find is let it reach room temp, then grill maybe 10 minutes depending if skin is on, the amount or size, briefly indirectly on a 600 degree grill for 5 minutes to wipe out most microbes, then brown it up gently until the meat thermometer satisfies any concerns you may have. And I clean the grill and oil it b4, but not with 10w40..

A BBQ sauce with any sugar (or tomato which has sugar) can’t be on the chicken longer than 20 minutes.
