Cooking outdoors is a great way to make dinner when time is tight. While the grill is heating up, you can quickly simmer the sauce. To prevent the sauce from burning while grilling, only brush it on during the last few minutes.

I've tried several different BBQ chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is always moist and the sauce is perfect.

The chicken was a little dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices to the chicken before grilling.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still good. I would recommend using less brown sugar next time.

I wasn't sure how this would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was moist and flavorful and the sauce was just the right amount of tangy and sweet. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so juicy and the sauce was amazing. I served it with coleslaw and potato salad and it was a perfect summer meal.
