Recipe video above. This is how I make BBQ Chicken in the oven when I&#039;m craving sticky chicken but don&#039;t want to fire up the BBQ! Made with a quick homemade BBQ sauce, the chicken is braised in the sauce which is loaded with extra flavour from the juices of the chicken. Fabulous sticky glaze, juicy inside!

Oven Baked BBQ Chicken - with quick homemade barbecue sauce

ketchup (or Australian/UK tomato sauce)

apple cider vinegar

Worcestershire Sauce

tbsp brown sugar

mustard powder

onion powder

tsp salt

black pepper

water

chicken

chives

Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F.

Sauce: Mix all Sauce ingredients in a ceramic/glass baking dish (Note 3), then mix in water.

Add chicken and turn to coat. Place chicken skin side down.

Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, turn chicken, spoon over Sauce.

Bake for a further 30 minutes, then remove and spoon over Sauce.

Skim off fat (optional): Tilt pan and spoon or drain off excess fat.

Broil/grill - Change to broiler/grill on high. Spoon sauce over chicken generously, then place under grill / broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to caramelise the chicken and the sauce to thicken more. Do not walk away - this can happen quickly!

Serve chicken, garnished with parsley or green onions, if using. Pictured in post with Mashed Potato and Green Bean Salad (minus feta).

Cornbread, Coleslaw, Potato Salad (or try this no mayo Lemon Potato Salad), Southern Baked Beans, big leafy salad with classic Vinaigrette, steamed corn with butter, bread rolls, creamy mashed potato (or Creamy Cauliflower Mash for low carb emergency!), or Potato &amp; Gravy.

Crockpot BBQ Chicken Sliders

TBSP ranch dressing seasoning

TBSP minced garlic

TBSP vinegar

BBQ Sauce (I usually use Sweet Baby Ray’s)

(1) 12 pack of King’s Hawaiian Sliders

Colby Jack Cheese

Shredded Cheddar Cheese

bacon

TBSP of butter

TBSP of Ranch Seasoning

Spray a crockpot with cooking spray.

Add chicken, minced garlic, vinegar, and all the seasonings to a crockpot.

Add some BBQ sauce on top. I don't use exact measurements for this part. I usually just do enough to cover the chicken, but you can really use as much as you'd like.

Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.

Shred the chicken, stir well, and add a little bit more BBQ sauce if needed.

Slice King’s Hawaiian rolls in half and add sliced Colby Jack cheese.

Top the cheese with a layer of the shredded BBQ chicken.

Add shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chicken.

Add at least 6 strips of cooked bacon and place the tops of the rolls on top.

Add 1 TBSP of ranch seasoning to 4 TBSP of melted butter. Brush the melted butter/ranch seasoning all over the tops of the sliders.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

Extremely easy! Also like the other recipe Luke shared using this bbq chicken on baked potatoes.

These were absolutely delicious!!!  I couldn’t wait to eat dinner all day! The house smelled amazing!

I agree. Even with the temp amended to 350 degrees F, I only left in the oven for 8 minutes. Lovely recipe!

400° is way too hot for the ending. Our buns came out burnt. Other than that, they had excellent flavor!
