This chicken is topped with a sticky, finger-lickin' sauce that everyone-including my kids-loves. I make it in big batches now and give jars of it to family and friends. -Stacey Nerness, Spencer, Iowa

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my old BBQ chicken recipe.

The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a more savory sauce.

This chicken was a little too dry for my taste. I think I might have overcooked it.

I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce was so flavorful and not too sweet. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of chicken breasts on the weekend and then used them to make this dish on Monday. It was quick and easy to make.
