Marinade:
1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce (see below for recipe)
1/4 cup chicken wings sauce ( I use Franks)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and smoked paprika
2 teaspoons olive oil
Place chicken legs into marinade mix well and place in a container for at least 3 hours or overnight.
When chicken is marinated, pre heat grill on high, then lower to medium. Place legs on the grill, cook chicken until crisp and brown, cutting to it with juices running clear.
Basic BBQ Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon mustard
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons black pepper
Mix all the above in a bowl, taste better made the day before and refrigerated, however you can use this right away.
Or here is another alternative for you.... if you like a smoky flavor
Smoky BBQ Sauce
1 bottle chili sauce (12 ounces)
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon mustard
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons vinegar
2 teaspoon liquid smoke
Again, mix it all up in a bowl and refrigerator overnight if possible.
Chicken is really tasty if cooked in this way. It's perfect for a barbeque with friends. Bye dear, have a great week
