I made 10 pieces (breasts, legs, wings), ran a little short on bread crumbs but the flour amount was plenty. Added salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder and the paprika to the flour. Used half oil, half butter, which I heated while the chicken was resting after being coated. Cooking time and temp was right on, though I did let the breasts go an additional 10 mins since they were bigger than the other pieces. BF gave it 4 stars I give it 3.5, only because I found the bread crumbs to be meh, flavor-wise. Mine did crisp up nicely though, oh, maybe because I gave the tops a quick spray before they went into the oven. Overall, a good meal, I'd just like a different flavor in the coating. Will use this method again and experiment with the seasoning/breading. Thanks for the recipe.

I appreciate that this was so easy to make and it calls for ingredients that I always have. I'm not a big fan of Sloppy Joes, but my BF likes them now and then. I decided to try this to see if I'd like it better than the typical canned version, I did! BF said he likes it considerably more. I made two small changes: I used 1/2c ketchup + 1/4c of my fave bbq sauce, which is sweet, so I reduced the brown sugar by half. I read other comments about the mixture being too dry, but I covered mine while it simmered and it turned out just right in regards to moisture. No more canned mix for us - thanks for this recipe.

I was looking for a way to season my roast kind of last-minute. I didn't have time to let this sit overnight but I did leave it on the counter for about 2 hours to let it come up in temp (meat cooks more evenly if you don't go straight from frig to oven). I added about 1T of olive oil to the rub mix to make a paste so it would stick to the roast better. Was worried about the 2T of sugar, so I changed that to 1tsp of brown sugar (glad I did). Loved the flavor, including that little touch of sweet from the brown sugar! Baked on a rack, to the bottom of the pan I added: 3c water, 1 pkt pork gravy mix (McCormick), 1/2 pkt onion soup mix and some chopped raw onion (to make gravy). Outstanding.
