- Prepare the chicken as indicated then wash in cold water and dry with paper towels.
- In medium size saucepan, melt the margarine over a medium low heat, adding all of the other ingredients.
- The reason for using margarine instead of butter is to reduce the burning while cooking.
- When the mixture has heated through, let the mixture set awhile to let the flavors “marry”.
- Make sure your charcoal is gray-white before starting to grill.
- One other implement is needed-- a bottle of water to douse the flames (and there will be flames).
- Dip each piece of chicken into the sauce until covered than place on the grill about 10 inches from the coal.
- You will have flame-ups, but don’t worry about it, that is normal-just keep dousing with water and you will have lots of smoke.
- The smoke is the real secret to the great flavor.
- Let the chicken cook for about 45 minutes, turning and dipping in the sauce about every 5 minutes or so.
- This recipe requires constant attention- don’t walk away.
