Blueberry BBQ Chicken Two Ways

bgebrent · July 2018

I posted this recipe here a couple years ago but thought I'd share again as it's uniquely delicious and blueberries are great right now. I used the original blueberry bbq sauce recipe (link: https://www.saveur.com/blueberry-barbecue-chicken-recipe ) from Saveur on one bird. On the other, I took an idea from @northGAcock who mentioned a similar homemade sauce he's made that also has chipotles/adobo. Both were really great. As we tend to like spicy stuff, I'll tend to add the chipotles going forward. Great smoky, sweet heat. Thanks Robin.
Garden crusty ‘taters a la Nichole along with her skillet corn. Sunday supper was a winner. Cheers.

Blueberry leg up front. Chipotle-blueberry quarter in the back.

I literally put this recipe in my book two weeks ago. My wife made a comment about me making it again.

(Hopefully this time the food processor lid won’t drip and stain the house blue

Nice!

for whatever reason, I’ve been wary of trying the fruity sauces (blackberry, blueberry, peach, etc. ) I really need to grow up and give ‘em a shot.

Nicely done. Looks like a delicious change of pace meal right there.

Blueberry two ways?

Love the idea of the adobo, I’ll have to give this a shot.

Winner, winner, etc.

So did you just do a typical Spatchcock cook?

Awesome looking birds.. one of the good things about living in So Cal is our access to Mexican markets and I love using a variety of peppers in my food. Gonna have to try this.
