Notes
- Use a good brand of BBQ sauce: Kraft’s, Sweet Baby Ray’s, or Stubb’s BBQ!
- Use your favorite BBQ sauce: You can use store-bought BBQ sauce or your favorite homemade BBQ sauce for this recipe.
- Don’t rush the cooking process: Allow the chicken to cook thoroughly before adding the BBQ sauce so the sauce doesn’t burn before the chicken is done.
- Fully coat the chicken: Make sure to turn the chicken over and add BBQ sauce to both sides before adding it back to the oven.
- Let the chicken rest: Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. This helps keep the meat juicy and makes it easier to serve.
