Barbecue Chicken Quarters – Low Carb |Sugar Free
Jump to recipe

You love barbecue. But you didn’t fall off the turnip truck yesterday. You watch Food Network, the Cooking Channel, Bravo and BBQ Pitmasters. You KNOW commercially prepared barbecue has a boatload of sugar and sugary type ingredients—in the rubs and the sauces! So buying prepared barbecue is out. Where do you find delicious, healthy low carb, sugar free barbecue recipes? Recipes that don’t take eleventy billion years to prepare? Well, there comes a time when we all must face the cold, harsh, reality of life. Not everyone owns a smoker or grill. *sob*. We should change that, one grill/smoker at a time—maybe a barbecue non-profit? And not everyone is willing to trade a few hours or an entire day for the genuine, real deal. What’s a low carber to do?


Sooooo, what do you do when you want that gooey barbecue chicken flavor and messiness, but you can’t afford the sticker shock from the barbecue joint and you KNOW they use tons of hidden sugars? Where do you get a genuinely decent low carb barbecue chicken recipe that takes all of about 11 minutes from fridge to plate? Well, Fluffy Chix Cook Barbecued Chicken Quarters is your ticket to Atkins Induction and Page 4 friendly BBQ-titude. Sure, we’ll tell you right now. It’s a fake. It’s a low carb convenience recipe and uses products and shhh, there is sucralose involved. We burn with shame. So it might not be right for you. We understand. But just hear us out.

In the early days of low carbing, when you’re riding that big-old, cold turkey and wondering if you can do this thing…this breaking-up with all that lovely food that made you sick, tired and maybe—er—fluffy? You’re feeling a little trepidation, some fear and a LOT overwhelmed. What do you eat? How do you afford it? How do you have the time or energy to cook from scratch? What are safe low carb keto foods? And dammit Janet! Where do you get your sugar free barbecue fix?

That’s when Fluffy Chix Cook relies on the low carb easy button. We want meals on the table in 15-20 minutes or less, ideally. We want simple. We want big, bold, beautiful flavors. We want to be able to count on using a few convenience items—time will come later in the low carb keto continuum, when you wean off from convenience and become more selective. But one baby step at a time grasshopper. For now, today, we want easy. And we want yummy! Prepacked low carb rotisserie chicken is a nutritional bargain. Each chicken yields about 20 ounces of cooked meat (about 4 cups) and costs about $5.99. That’s about $4.79/pound, much cheaper than deli meat and few preservatives (maybe). Costco even sells leftover rotisserie chicken meat in a big 5 pound sack, picked and ready for you, for much less per pound. So pre-made chicken can be a low carb convenient trick that actually saves money in the bargain.

This healthy low carb Barbeque Chicken Quarter recipe removes the questions and fear from those early days on the cold turkey, or on the wall. Sugar free, diabetic friendly, filled with flavor—and you don’t even have to slave over a hot grill. We think you’ll like it.

Although, the pictures show a full quarter (leg and thigh) in the low carb bbq recipe, the absolute easiest option is pulling the chicken into chunks or strips while it’s fresh from the store and still warm. Either eat the skin as a snack while you work, or B/T skin and bones for use in bone broth—we’ll get to the bone broth recipe soon. Swearsies. Now you have that moist, luscious chicken ready to roll! Then the day you go to eat, just throw the sauce ingredients in a nonstick skillet, cook a minute or two and toss in a bunch of chicken. Heat another minute or two and boom. Done, baby!! Go to Keto Town!

Please give it a go and let us know how it worked for you. Use your favorite sugar free, zero carb or near zero carb barbecue sauce. We like Walden Farm barbecue sauce because it is zero carbs and because it dresses up well with spicy additions. It’s convenient. And if you don’t like chicken, maybe you prefer low carb BBQ Sloppy Joes? We’ve got you covered there, too. Pulled Pork? Simple, just use either the sauce recipe below or use the BBQ Sloppy Joe Sauce to make our Slow Cooker Pulled Pork into instant BBQ Pulled Pork the same we described in the paragraph right before this one. And if you hanker for a sandwich, then throw this low carb BBQ on a keto-licious bun and enjoy. Get your Q on, hon!
