This is sticky, finger-lickinâ sauce that everyone, including my kids, loves. I make it in big batches now and give jars of it to family and friends.âStacey Nerness, Spencer, Iowa Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups ketchup |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup honey |
1/4 cup liquid smoke |
1/4 cup molasses |
1 serrano pepper, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons prepared mustard |
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
2 teaspoons onion powder |
2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
4 chicken leg quarters |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the first 12 ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Set aside 1/2 cup sauce for basting; cover and refrigerate remaining sauce for later use. 2. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, rub on grill rack to coat lightly. 3. Prepare grill for indirect heat, using a drip pan. Place chicken skin side down over drip pan and grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 20 minutes. Turn; grill 20-30 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 180° and juices run clear, basting occasionally with reserved sauce. Yield: 4 servings plus 3 cups leftover sauce. |
