With four small children at home, I need quick yet filling meals. This family-favorite BBQ chicken sandwich filling is a cinch to make. For a spicier taste, eliminate the ketchup and increase the amount of salsa to 1 cup. -Leticia Lewis, Kennewick, Washington

DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS BACKYARD BARBEQUE CHICKEN



Deep in the Heart of Texas Backyard Barbeque Chicken image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

1 whole chicken (3-4 pounds) cut into quarters
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Salt
Black pepper
Dried thyme, to taste
Crushed red bell pepper flakes, to taste
3 cups barbeque sauce
Country Greens-Cornbread Pan Stuffing, recipe follows
Peach-Jalapeno Chutney, recipe follows
For the Greens:
4 pounds fresh collard greens
1 smoked ham hock
8 cups chicken stock, plus 2 to 3 cups more, if needed
1 large onion, peeled and kept whole
2 dried red chiles
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Salt
Pepper vinegar, to taste
For the cornbread:
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 extra large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (or melted bacon grease)
5 ripe peaches
1 tablespoon finely diced ginger
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make sure the whole chicken is rinsed under running water. Cut chicken into quarters, brush with vegetable oil and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and pepper flakes on both sides. Set aside.
  • A clean grill is a happy grill. Make sure old ashes are discarded and grates are brushed clean. Add wood charcoal and ignite. When charcoal has burned to white ash, add chicken quarters skin side down. The process now is to render as much grease from the skin without burning the skin or causing the grease to flare-up on the fire and burn the skin. Take your time and be attentive to what is on the grill.
  • At this point, add water soaked hickory chips (a small handful at a time) to the edge of the fire. This will start the smoking process. Seal in the smoke with a lid or the top of the grill. Remember to keep an eye on the chicken and turn when skin is rendered about 8 to 10 minutes. If the smoke dies down, add another handful of hickory chips.
  • Grill and smoke chicken for about 15 additional minutes making sure the meat is cooking evenly on both sides. Then begin basting each piece of chicken with barbeque sauce. Don't be afraid to swipe on the barbeque sauce heavy and keep turning each piece to prevent burning in 1 area of the grill.
  • Remove barbequed chicken from grill to a platter and serve family style with bowls of Country Greens-Cornbread Pan Stuffing and Peach-Jalapeno Chutney. You may find 1 whole chicken is just not enough to satisfy "A Big Texas Appetite."
  • To prepare the collard greens, pick through the greens, discarding any large stems and brown or yellow leaves. Wash thoroughly to remove all grit. With a knife, cut the greens into bite-sized pieces.
  • Place the ham hock, onion, chiles and pepper in a large pot over medium-high heat and add enough stock to cover by 1-inch. Bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
  • Add the greens in 4 batches, stirring each batch down until wilted and submerged in the liquid. If needed, add more stock to keep the greens covered by 1-inch. Increase the heat, to medium and simmer, 40 to 60 minutes. The length of cooking time depends on the age of the greens; the older the greens, the longer it takes to tenderize them. The liquid (potlikker) should be reduced by 3/4. Remove the ham hock, pull the meat from bones and cut into medium dice. Add back to greens. Remove onion, chop fine and add back to greens. Season with pepper vinegar. Combine with the cornbread and keep warm!
  • Cornbread:
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet and place in oven.
  • Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, eggs and butter. Stir with a few rapid strokes until dry ingredients are just moistened.
  • Pour batter into hot pan. Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until edges are light brown and bread is firm. Remove from oven and let cool. With a knife cut cornbread into 1-inch dice.;
  • Peel and pit all peaches. Medium dice 3 peaches, place in a bowl and set aside.
  • Puree the remaining peaches in a blender. Pour mixture into a medium saucepan with ginger, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Bring pan to medium heat and reduce mixture, stirring occasionally, until thick for about 5 to 6 minutes. Pour diced peaches into saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes or until mixture is hot. Remove and set aside.

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 1/4 cups Chipotle Vinegar BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
4 slices Texas toast, brushed with butter and toasted until golden

2 cups ketchup
1/3 cup molasses
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 medium clove garlic, grated
1 medium Vidalia onion, peeled, quartered and pureed in a food processer, solids strained and juice reserved (about 1/4 cup onion juice)
1 medium Vidalia onion, peeled, quartered and pureed in a food processer, solids strained and juice reserved (about 1/4 cup onion juice)
1 chipotle pepper in adobo
1 to 2 tablespoons adobo sauce, depending on spice desired
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Red pepper flakes
1 bay leaf
1 large red onion, peeled, halved and sliced into half-moons, 1/4-inch thick
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Add the oil to the skillet, and then the chicken thighs. Sear both sides of the chicken until golden in color, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Lower the heat and add in the Chipotle Vinegar BBQ Sauce. Bring to a simmer, and then place in the oven to finish cooking the chicken, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the chicken cool a bit in the sauce. Then, using two forks, shred the chicken into medium pieces and hold in the sauce until ready to serve.
  • Lay down the Texas toast and put a nice amount of the saucy, shredded chicken on top. Artfully drizzle Southern White Sauce on top of the chicken and then pile on the Pickled Red Onions. Pick it up or fork and knife it, either way it's delicious.
  • Add the ketchup, molasses, vinegar, 1/4 cup water, mustard, oil, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, black pepper, garlic, onion juice, chipotle pepper and adobo sauce together in a saucepot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once at a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes to combine the flavors. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, cider vinegar, lemon juice and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Use immediately or store in airtight container in fridge for up to 4 days. Great as a salad dressing too!
  • To a saucepot, add the vinegar, 1/2 cup water, sugar, salt, red pepper flakes to taste and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Add the onions to a heatproof container and pour the boiling pickling liquid over them. Let the onions sit for at least 30 minutes. Right before serving, add in the parsley.
