My family truly loves this recipe. We don't fry foods much anymore and prefer to barbecue, so I adapted my mother's recipe for barbecue sauce to suit our tastes. Every summer, we have a neighborhood cookout. I take this chicken and watch it disappear! —Linda Scott, Hahira, Georgia

12 Servings
Prep: 10 min. Grill: 40 min.

Ingredients

2 broiler/fryer chicken (2 to 3 pounds each), cut up
SEASONING MIX:
3 tablespoons salt or salt substitute
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1-1/2 teaspoons pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
Pinch ground red pepper
SAUCE:
2 cups ketchup
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons dried minced onion
2 tablespoons thawed orange juice concentrate
1 tablespoon Seasoning Mix
1/2 teaspoon Liquid Smoke, optional

Directions

Pat chicken pieces dry so seasoning coats well; set aside. Combine seasoning mix ingredients; sprinkle generously over both sides of the chicken. Set aside 1 tablespoon mix for sauce and store leftovers in a covered container.
Grill chicken, skin side down, uncovered, over medium heat for 20 minutes. Turn; grill 20 to 30 minutes more or until chicken is tender and no longer pink.
Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl. During the last 10 minutes of grilling, brush chicken often with sauce. Yield: 12 servings.
