Oven Smoked Chicken
Bone in skin on chicken, however much will fit in a single layer of a baking dish or Dutch oven
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon smoked black pepper (can use regular)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
3 tablespoons brown sugar (dark or light)
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 cups cider vinegar
Pour your vinegar into a dutch oven or deep baking dish. Add remaining dry ingredients to the dutch oven. Stir to combine.
Place the chicken, skin side down, into the dutch oven. Put a lid on your dutch oven or cover your baking dish with foil.
Bake this at 300 for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully remove lid (watch for the steam). Flip chicken over and put lid back on. Return to oven for another 45 minutes.
After that time, remove lid and keep pot in oven. Place oven on broil for 15-20 minutes to brown and crisp skin, watching carefully so chicken doesn’t burn.
