Cook’s Note
The times given are for my oven settings. Times and temperature can vary from oven to oven, so adjust accordingly. These can also be grilled, but you will have to attend to them and add sauce more often, so it's more work.
You can use boneless breasts, but they have a tendency to turn out dry. Adjust the cooking times if you do.
You can use any prepared or homemade BBQ sauce you prefer.
