This is a variation of a recipe from Clarks Outpost in Tioga, Texas. It's best to start it the day before so it has enough time to marinate. Everybody raves about it!

Steps:
- Mix 10 cups water, sugar and salt in a large roasting pan or stock pot.
- Place chicken skin side down in the water mixture (add more water if necessary to cover chicken.).
- Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Drain chicken and pat dry.
- Place chicken halves skin side down in a single layer on heavy large baking sheet with rim, that has been lined with aluminum foil, preferably Release foil.
- Brush each half with 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce.
- Sprinkle with 1-1/4 teaspoon of Rub.
- Turn halves over and repeat.
- Bake chicken skin sides up, basting every 20 minutes (VERY IMPORTANT) with pan juices, for about 2 hours.
- THIS IS WORTH THE EFFORT!
- If you use chicken parts, like breast, thigh or drumsticks, reduce the cooking time to 1 hour, 30 minutes-ish. And reduce cooking time even more if using a convection oven.
