    Add broth & water about half way up in a large pot. Add chicken & salt free seasonings. Add chicken into water; boil 10 minutes, then turn down heat to a simmer; simmer chicken 30 minutes.

    Turn off burner & let chicken cool (in water) about 1 hour. NOTE: For those who can....can the juices & use for stock in soups & other things.

    After that point you can either marinade it in a ziplock bag in whatever marinade you'd like or slather on the BBQ sauce & let it sit for awhile. Or season it with your favorite spices. Then continue to cook as you desire (see note below). Whichever you choose - it'll be delicious & juicy!

    NOTE: This works for grilling, baking, broiling or frying the chicken or turkey. GRILLING: After marinated or seasoned to your choice…heat grill on HIGH. After heated, turn all burners to LOW (aka: indirect heat), cook breast side up 5 minutes (undisturbed), flip & cook another 5 minutes (undisturbed), flip again (if needed) for another 2 minutes, basting chicken with marinade each flip.
