I make a bbq chicken salad that is awesome. First I grill chicken breasts and a few minutes before I take them off the grill i baste them with Corky's bbq sauce (you can use whatever kind you like obviously) so that the sauce bakes onto the chicken a little bit.

After the chicken is done I let it rest while I prepare the rest of the salad.

I take a platter and line it with:
-romaine lettuce
-red cabbage shreds
-tomatoes
-cucumbers
-sliced red onion
-black beans
-corn (I use fresh when possible, but thawed frozen works well, too)
-sliced avacado
-diced jalepeno pepper
-tortilla strips (or broken up chips if you can't find the strips)

When the salad is assembled I slice the bbq chicken and top the salad with it.

For the dressing i take equal parts (usually a cup of each) of lo-fat ranch dressing and salsa and mix them together.

Voila'! An excellent summer salad!

Defrost your chicken. Take the Skin off of it.
Put it in a zip lock bag. add a little water if its not juicy.
Put a lot of garlic
Onion power
and Lemon peper. cover it.
shack it around for a bit. its good to let it sit too.
Cook it on a grill over Charcoal.
Use a thermomter(digital is NICE)
once it hits 170F put Sweet baby ray bbq sauce on it. and cover for about 5mins to 8 mins.
As soon as it hits 180F take it off
ENJOY!!
I've had many people say it was the best chicken EVER.

my fave reciepe uses drumsticks and thighs. i think breasts easily lose moisture and if u dont cook properly, they can not taste very good. here are the steps:
1. make a bbq sauce consisting of sauteed onions and garlic, ketchup, woischesre, hot sauce, honey.
2. cook chicken for 15 mins and then add sauce. cook another 15 mins.
3. cook until the chicken is no longer pink and juicy.
enjoy!

I have two.

Take rosemary, thyme (equal quantaties) and a few garlic cloves. Blend with olive oil, some cracked black pepper and marinate for a couple of hours.

OR

Tomato sauce, brown sauce (equal quantaties) a dash of dijon mustard and work into a liquid marinade consistancy with coca cola. Marinate for a couple of hours.

2 chickens (2 1/2 to 3 pounds each), quartered, with
backs removed
1 recipe Barbecue Sauce, recipe follows

Instructions
Marinate the chickens in 2/3 of the barbecue sauce for
a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.

Heat the coals in a charcoal grill. Spread the bottom of the grill with a single
layer of hot coals and then add a few more coals 5 minutes before cooking, which
will keep the fire going longer. Place the chicken quarters on the grill, skin side down, and cook for about 45 minutes, turning once or twice to cook evenly on
both sides. Brush with the marinade as needed. The chicken quarters are done when you insert a knife between a leg and thigh and the juices run clear. Discard any unused marinade.

Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side.


Barbecue Sauce:
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion (1 large onion)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
