Skip the hassle of standing over a hot grill…and that smell that just hangs around on your clothes all day. Yea, I’ll pass on that, thank you! Don’t worry though, a big rack of juicy pork spare ribs is still in your future, thanks to your handy dandy oven!

You’ll still be able to enjoy a big flavorful rack that is fall-off-the-bone tender. The combination of seasonings in the dry rub is like no other, and the mixture of beer and barbeque sauce is super crave-worthy. Get those wet naps ready because this is going to get messy!

If you enjoy the flavor of good barbecue but don’t feel like firing up the grill (or if it’s a bit outside of grilling season in your part of the world), your slow cooker is a good tool for re-creating that great BBQ flavor indoors. This Slow Cooker Barbecue Chicken is really savory and tender and is low-hassle enough for a regular family meal but works well for most any gathering.

The weather has been turning cooler here, and my old grill has finally beat the dust, so alas, I am done with outdoor cooking until next year, it seems. But I had a hankering for some barbecue, so I gave this barbecue chicken recipe a try. I have to say, the chicken came out nice and moist, and I thought that the spice blend was excellent.

If you like cheese and bacon, you’ll love this Chicken Monterey recipe!  Have restaurant-caliber flavor in about 45 minutes–quick and easy enough for even a hectic midweek night. If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I suppose that the Chili’s recipe developers ought to feel very flattered right about now.  I wouldn’t call this any ordinary imitation, though.  You had me at cheese and bacon–yum!

Some may say that this would be better cooked on the grill, but I thought that it turned out very nicely this way.  Baking it in the oven made it very low-hassle, too.  I served it with some green beans and macaroni and cheese (can you tell that we love cheese around here?), but I am sure that it would go with plenty of other things: wild rice, baked beans, cole slaw, maybe even a simple rice casserole would work.
