How to Make Beer Barbecued Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt ½ cup (1 stick) of butter in a large baking pan.
- Add chicken pieces to the pan, turning to coat evenly with melted butter.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- While the chicken is baking, melt the remaining ½ cup (1 stick) of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add barbecue sauce and beer to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
- Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and brush generously with the beer barbecue sauce.
- Place the chicken skin-side down on the grill grates or on a broiler pan.
- Grill or broil for 10-15 minutes, turning and basting frequently with the remaining sauce, until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the chicken from the grill or broiler. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve the chicken with extra sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
