Steps:

• 1. For spicy chicken rub add all spices into a bowl and stir well. Pull skin off chicken legs. Cover both sides of chicken with spicy rub and set aside. Turn oven on to 350 degrees.

Move chicken around pan occasionally. Add the green onions, sweet and spicy peppers, and thyme to pan. Stir vegetables around pan for 5 minutes. Add orange juice, lime juice, and pineapple chunks to pan. Stir bottom of pan to de-glaze. Cover with foil and lid and allow to cook in oven for 45 minutes or until chicken is 180 degrees.
• 3. While Chicken is cooking, heat sauce pot on medium with olive oil to begin bbq sauce. When oil is transluscent add yellow onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally and allow onion and garlic to sweat in pan for 3 to 5 minutes. When garlic and onions have changed color add the rest of ingredients to pot. Turn heat up to high and bring to a boil stirring frequently. When it comes up to a boil turn down heat to low-med and allow to simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. Stir occasionally.

TANGY CHICKEN BBQ MARINADE

Steps:

• Put cut up chicken in a deep bowl. Cover with marinade. Let the chicken marinade for up to 2 hours. Turn pieces ocassionally so that all pieces get evenly marinaded. Don't marinade for longer than 2 hours, because the chicken will get too tangy (unless you like really tangy chicken). Remove from the bowl when ready to grill, shaking off as much of the oil as you can. Grill on a BBQ over evenly hot coals, but watch for flaring because the oil dripping on the coals can cause a problem with that.
