The BBQ chicken platter has a rich history rooted in the American South, where it is a beloved staple of Southern cuisine. This dish typically features tender, juicy chicken that has been marinated in a flavorful barbecue sauce and then grilled to perfection. The origins of this dish can be traced back to the early days of American barbecue, where pitmasters and home cooks alike would slow-cook chicken over an open flame, basting it with a tangy, smoky sauce. Today, the BBQ chicken platter can be found in restaurants and backyard cookouts across the country, with each region putting its own unique spin on the dish. Whether it's served with classic sides like coleslaw and cornbread or paired with a zesty vinegar-based sauce, the BBQ chicken platter continues to be a beloved favorite. For the best version of this dish, head to the Southern states where expert pitmasters have perfected the art of grilling and smoking chicken to mouthwatering perfection. The key to getting this dish right lies in the marinade and the grilling technique, as the chicken should be tender and infused with the smoky, sweet flavors of the barbecue sauce. While the traditional method involves grilling the chicken over an open flame, some chefs also swear by slow-cooking the chicken in a smoker to achieve that signature smoky flavor. Whether you prefer it with a sticky, sweet sauce or a tangy, vinegar-based one, the BBQ chicken platter is a true Southern classic that continues to delight diners across the country.
