Curt's Jack Daniels Barbecued Baked Chicken Guest Post

Roasted slow in the oven on a rack after marinaded overnight. Curt has a knack for making great sauces for dipping, marinades and gets pretty creative, you may have seen some of this previous  Italian Style Chicken Wing Feast,  with  four flavors of awesome sauces of  Glazed Sesame Chicken.  Curt also made an Italian Style Grilled Version then  made a Catalina dressing marinade for chicken breasts.  I just love when he asks to do a guest post on chicken or something we haven't tried before. This chicken came out awesome, another chicken  recipe keeper for me for sure! If you need a suggestion on a great appetizer take a look at this one try Curt's loaded potato skins!

Moist and tender with a delicious smoked flavor, perfect with baked beans and baked potatoes.
