The absolutely easiest way is to make the original bbq sauce and keep in the fridge. Then when you want bbq chicken, get a well browned rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. Coat in the saucce, warm in the oven, save some sauce for dipping. This is the recipe that I have: 1/4 Cup oil, juice of 3 lemons 3T salt, 1t black pepper, 1T brown sugar, 2Cups vinegar, 2T Worcestershire sauce, 1/2t crushed red pepper, dash paprika, 1T ketchup. My granddaughter sits and goes mmm eating this.

I was a member of one of those scout troops back in the 50's-60's that used this fund raiser for camping expenses and other items. My dad used to purchase a case of chicken 1/2's from Holly Farms back then and would BBQ then using the same sauce and method's that we scouts did.

Wewould then take these and wrap them individualy in heavy duty aluminum foil for eating in the winter. Mom would simply thaw out as many halves as the 4 of us could eat, place them in the oven in the foil that they were packed in, on warm ( a little under 200 degree's) until heated through ( sorry, I can't remember how long that was). Generaly she would serve this up with corn or beans that we had frozen or canned during the summer. It was just as good then as it was the day it came off the grill!

I want to say that there were approx. 30-32 halves in a case back then, but whatever the quantity, it was enough for us to eat BBQ chicken about once per week in the winter. Course though now, with all of the fancy gas grills, smoker's, etc., that are available most folks probably just cook some up whenever the urge hits. But it was fun and very good "eatin" back in those days!

BTW, Bushman, thanks for reprinting the recipe that Mr. Pratt used. I had lost my copy and was still making something similar to his, just couldn't remember the correct quantities of ingredients.

Can anyone tell me how to fix bbq chicken like people sell @ Memorial Park? Like the Boy Scouts/Churches/Eastern Stars or other groups that have the moist, kind of spicy chicken halves that they sell as fundraisers? Thanks!
