How to Make Alex Guarnaschelli's Mother Chicken With Bbq
- **Prepare the BBQ Sauce:** In a medium saucepan, combine ketchup, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, light brown sugar, dark brown sugar, dry mustard, Dijon mustard, and chili powder.
- Whisk until well blended.
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add the ginger, garlic, and lemon slices. Stir to combine.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the vinegar mellows and the flavors meld.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely. Discard the ginger slices.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Season chicken generously with salt.
- Pour 1 1/2 cups of BBQ sauce into a large bowl. Reserve the remaining sauce.
- Add the chicken to the bowl, ensuring each piece is coated in sauce. Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with some lemon slices tucked underneath.
- Brush the chicken with the remaining reserved sauce.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and carefully flip each chicken piece using tongs.
- Brush the other side of the chicken with the remaining sauce from the bowl (do not reuse this bowl or brush).
- Return to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
- Turn on the broiler and broil for 1 minute, or until the chicken is slightly charred on top (watch closely to prevent burning).
- Warm the reserved BBQ sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve immediately with the warm sauce on the side.
