corporate picnics in winter

Okay so there was no picnic, seeing as it is winter, and it wasn't corporate as it was my kitchen in logan square but the menu certainly screamed "have you tried deb's famous potato salad?". I needed to have a brainstorm sesh with my farceytail productions partner stacey, and decided it was a great reason to bake up that whole chicken that was sitting in our freezer. Of course having two days off in a row, and spending the morning hung over in my apartment, I felt the need to turn this into a giant to-do. The menu was baked bbq chicken, macaroni salad, mashed potatoes, corn, broccoli and corn bread. A random summertime meal in midwinter. Nothing about the dinner was exceptional, except the chicken.
I decided to try baking some of the chicken with bacon wrapped around it. I always think that bacon will ruin a meal (which makes no sense salt and fat are my two favorite flavors), so I was not brave enough to try it on all. As usual I was wrong, I should have double wrapped everyone of those bitches! Bacon wrapped meat is always delicious, and bacon on burgers with bbq sauce is awesome, why wouldn't bacon barbequed chicken be fanfrickentastic? It was, and it was really easy to make.

Dredge chicken in seasoned flour ( salt and pepper for sure, I also used paprika, cayenne and some other random spices)
Wrap in raw bacon
Place in buttered pan
Cover in foil and bake at 400 for 45 minutes
Smother in favorite bbq sauce
Bake uncovered for another 20 minutes

My friend danny brought over a case of PBR and I think that it was a perfect pairing, but any light hoppy beer would go well.
