Can You Put Bbq Sauce On Raw Chicken?
Yes, you can put BBQ sauce on raw chicken. However, it’s important to keep in mind food safety guidelines for handling and cooking raw chicken to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination. It’s recommended to marinate the chicken in the BBQ sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse before cooking thoroughly to an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure it’s safe to eat.
