Quick & Easy SHORTCUT Weeknight Barbeque Chicken

Every now and then, i get a bonafide craving for gooey, messy barbeque chicken.   I don't make it that often because it's messy . . . ehrrr clean up is messy.  But I think that I've found a way to have the original, but in a quick, easy, weeknight kinda ease! Weeknight Barbeque Chicken

This meal is budget friendly too!  The chicken legs were $0.99/lb and the corn on the cob were $0.20/each!   That brought this meal total (with sauce) to $4.00 for dinner and lunch for two!!  I made enough for lunch leftovers.

Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken legs (adjust for your family)

bottled barbeque sauce of your choice

Instructions:

Place chicken legs in a deep saucepan and cover with water.  Bring to a boil and cook until you get a foam on the top.  Remove from water and place in a large bowl, cover with barbeque sauce and allow to marinade while you heat the grill or broiler.  If broiling, cover a shallow pan or tray with foil.  Cook just until each side darkens and flip.  Voila!  Serve hot with lots of napkins!
