"When DH and I grill chicken for a barbecue party, we have always used this method. Of course DH always gets the credit since he is the one the guests see doing the grilling. This works for all parts of the chicken as we always have a variety, as some only eat dark and others only eat white meat. Since Labor Day is coming up in the USA, I thought I'd share my secret. This is more of a cooking method, then a recipe, as you get to use your favorite sauce. We use Jack Daniels Honey Smokehouse."
