Season the 6 lb chicken with 1 tablespoon chicken seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1.5 teaspoons paprika, and 1.5 teaspoons black pepper, ensuring to rub the seasoning into the skin.

Cover the chicken and let it marinate for about 1 hour before frying.

In a container, combine flour with chicken seasoning, paprika, and black pepper for breading.

Coat each piece of marinated chicken with the seasoned flour, removing excess flour after coating.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium to high heat until hot.

Fry the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown, adjusting heat as necessary to avoid burning.

Remove the fried chicken and set aside.

Mix together 1/4 cup barbecue sauce, 1/4 cup Diana sauce, and 2 tablespoons honey in a bowl.

Drain excess oil from the fried chicken and dip each piece into the barbecue sauce mixture, then place on a rack.

Preheat the oven to 350°F and place the chicken in the oven for about 10 minutes to warm through and set the sauce.
