place chicken in dutch oven pour bbq sauce over and cook for 1 hour. We use 12-in dutch oven so you use 8 coals on bottom, 16 on top. We like Famous Dave's BBQ sauce the best!!!

Best Dutch Oven Potatoes



This were the best potatoes!!! We loved them!!!

6 slice of thick-cut bacon
1 onion, diced
12 potatoes, peeled and sliced in 1/4- in thick rounds (we didn't peel ours)
1 can (4 oz.) diced green chiles
1/2 c. water
salt and pepper, to taste
2 c. grated cheddar cheese

Cook bacon in preheated Dutch oven, over 8-10 coals, remove from heat and crumble. Add onion to the bacon grease and cook until translucent. Put bacon back in the oven and add the potatoes, chiles, and water; season with the salt and pepper.

Cover and bake, using 9-10 coals on bottom 18 on top for 25 mins. Remove lid and turn potatoes over, do not stir. Add more water if needed. Cook 20-25 mins. more. Remove from heat and take coals from lid. Put cheese on potatoes and replace lid for 5 mins. to melt cheese.

BBQ Beans



1 pd. bacon
4 cans (15 oz. each) Busch baked beans
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 pack (16 oz.) lit'l smokies
hot sauce, to taste

Cook bacon until crisp using 12-in. dutch oven over 10-12 coals. Remove from oven, drain, and crumble. Add baked beans to the dutch oven, cover and bring to a boil (takes about 10 min.), use 9 coals underneath the oven and 14 on top. Add bell pepper, onion, lit'l smokies, hot sauce, and bacon; continue simmering until vegetables are cooked, 10-15 mins.

We didn't add the hot sauce we wanted everyone to add their own.
