How to Make Grandma's BBQ Chicken w/ Spaghetti

Step-by-Step

Bring everything but chicken to a boil. Pour over chicken. I use a large dutch oven to prevent spills in my oven. Bake, covered, for an hour and a half, or until chicken is cooked through.
While this is cooking, prepare pasta according to the package.
Remove chicken from sauce and put under the broiler for a few minutes. Serve with sauce and pasta.

I often serve the sauce on the side - allowing people to get as much or as little as they'd like. It doesn't need cheese, but you can serve with Parmesan if you'd like.
