1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoon orange juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 1/2 lb chicken
1 teaspoon chipotle in adobo sauce; optional see notes

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together all ingredients except the chicken. Reserve 1/3 cup of the BBQ sauce; set aside. Add the chicken to the remaining sauce in the bowl, turning to coat. Arrange the chicken on an 8 X 8" roasting dish. Cook uncovered for 45 minutes, basting with the reserved sauce after 20 minutes if needed.This was really good. Last time we baked it for 1 hour and got quite a bit of water on the bottom.
