Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 chicken thighs (bone in)
7:2:2 or seasoning of choice

Steps:

  • Start the skin-on bone-in chicken thighs and seasoning of your choice.
  • Preheat grill to 450° surface temperature. That is medium to medium-high heat on most grills. Use the entire grill surface. Clean and oil grill grate well.
  • While the grill is preheating, trim the thighs of any trim-able fat and extra skin and allow them to rest at room temperature until the grill is ready.
  • Before placing on the grill, give all sides a sprinkle of salt and pepper to your taste. I use my Homemade Seasoning, which is salt, pepper, and garlic powder. But season to your liking. If using skinless thighs, give them a light brushing of vegetable oil.
  • Using only half the grill surface, place on the grill over direct heat with skin side UP. Grill for 5-6 minutes, then flip onto the other side of the grill and skin down. Grill for about 4 minutes with the skin down. Continue to go back and forth between sides of the grill and skin up and down with the same timing. If using skinless thighs, you can grill both sides for 5 minutes until done but do alternate sides.
  • Grill to 180°-185° internal temperature-about 25 minutes, but this will vary some with your exact grill surface temperature, the temperature of the thighs, and thickness. Boneless will be faster and tend to be thinner, so start checking at 15 minutes.
  • Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

JUICY BARBECUED CHICKEN THIGHS RECIPE



Juicy Barbecued Chicken Thighs Recipe image

These BBQ chicken thighs are so tender and flavorful. I love that you can prep them ahead of time and just toss 'em on the grill when you're ready; making them perfect for parties. You'll want to marinate the chicken at least 6 hours and it's best to let them marinate overnight.

Categories     Easy

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lbs about 10 count boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Sea Salt (about 1 tsp)
Pepper (about 1/4 tsp or to taste)
Mrs. Dash Seasoning (about 1 tsp, plain or garlic variety, or your favorite seasoning)
Garlic Powder (about 1/2 tsp)
1 Tbsp Real Mayo
1 medium onion (thickly sliced)
BBQ Sauce

Steps:

  • Season both sides of chicken thighs to taste. I used a total of 1 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1 tsp Mrs. Dash Seasoning, 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Turn the chicken to coat evenly with seasoning.
  • Stir in 1 Tbsp Mayo and mix the chicken until evenly coated.
  • Add thick-sliced onion and toss everything together. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and marinate 6 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the grill and generously brush grill plates with oil. Reduce heat to low and place chicken thighs with a smooth side up.
  • Cover the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes. I rotated them once to make criss-cross grill marks. Before flipping the thighs, baste them with BBQ Sauce.
  • Flip thighs over, baste the flip side with BBQ sauce then cover and cook for another 12-15 minutes, rotating once to make grill marks. Check for doneness by cutting the thicker part of the chicken. If juices run clear then its done. Flip the chicken again, coat it with BBQ sauce and remove from the grill. Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  • Place Chicken thighs flat with the smooth side up on a large rimmed baking dish, spaced out in a single layer. Bake at 400˚F for 30 mins.
  • Increase heat to 450 and Remove chicken from oven to brush the tops and sides generously with BBQ sauce. Return chicken to the oven another 5 minutes or until glaze has dried slightly onto the chicken.

Provided by Derrick Riches

Categories     Dinner     Entree     Lunch     Appetizer

Time 5h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 pounds chicken thighs (bone-in, skin on)
For the Marinade
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
For the Barbecue Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Optional: 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, white vinegar, salt, granulated sugar, and red pepper flakes.
  • Place chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag.
  • Pour marinade over top, seal bag, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for four to six hours, or up to overnight.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Prepare the sauce by combining ketchup, white vinegar, brown sugar, sweet paprika, olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, if using, and salt in a small saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Continue to simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove sauce from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes to thicken; then cover and set aside. If making the sauce a day in advance, cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Bring the sauce to room temperature before finishing the recipe, but do not boil or overheat it.
  • Heat a grill on medium-low heat to about 300 F. Remove chicken from marinade, discard remaining marinade, and place chicken thighs skin-side down on heated grill.
  • Cook for about 30 minutes with the lid down, turning occasionally.
  • During the last 20 minutes or so of cooking, brush sauce over the chicken until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165 F and the sauce has cooked down to a sticky consistency. Make sure to test more than one piece for consistency.
  • Once cooked through, remove the chicken from the heat and place onto a large platter. Tent with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
