I made this and it was great. The only thing I added was a grated jalapeno for some spice. That will also deal with any extra sweetness :)

This was very, very good! I also halved the brown sugar and used beer instead of water and it tasted excellent!

This was ok, but way too sweet, which is weird because I love sweet everything. Not sure if I would make this as is again. I did not add any water, because I wanted thick sauce. Without water, it had the consistency of Sweet Baby Ray's, and was about the same with the sweetness, just not tangy. Tried adding garlic, a dash of red chile paste, and some onion to give it more flavor but that wasn't enough. Might try it again and just add more garlic, onion, and siracha.

Use a tsp or so of liquid smoke....my Mom has been making this BBQ sauce for years, and everyone craves it. Even my husband who hates chicken will eat it with this BBQ sauce.

I thought this was excellent I had took some advice from previous comments. I doubled the recipe but halved the sugar and water also I added flour to make it thick also added some roasted pepper and garlic and instead of lemon juice I used vinegar (since I found myself without lemon juice) I started to paint the sauce on at 30 mins and did so every 5 mins then at 45 mins add the rest on and cooked for 15 mins

I used drumsticks, and for some reason, interpreted "mustard" as dry mustard, and used it. After looking at the recipe again, I wonder if the it should have been prepared mustard. The sauce did produce a picture perfect coating on my chicken, but I have tasted better - I'd love to know if what type of mustard others used, and if prepared mustard improves the flavor. If I do make this again, I will add some minced garlic or garlic powder.

This Is a good recipe. But I put one full tablespoon of sugar As the ketchup is already sweet. I added 2 peg of grated garlic and grated a small piece of ginger and some barbecue sauce. It was delicious.

Thanks for the recipe and cooking instructions. It's too hot on my back porch to grill bbq chicken although sometimes I will rough it while cooking chicken on charcoal and mesquite. For the bbq sauce, you can substitute maple syrup or honey instead of brown sugar if you like. I add lemon juice as mentioned above and sometimes pickled jalapeno juice too when all the jalapenos are gone from the jar...might as well use it, eh? Liquid smoke is good too as is worcestershire sauce.

Great recipe! Used less sugar and had to modify using lemonade for lemon juice and didn't have enough ketchup so watered down what I had left to make almost 1/2 cup and added a squirt of sweet baby rays and added liquid smoke turned out pretty thin so I cut up the chicken and put into an 8x8 and completely submerged and baked for another 20 minutes.

Also cut the sugar in half and it was awesome. Also really easy to make and hard to mess up!

I made this with chicken drumsticks and my 2 boys (ages 4 and 6) devoured it. So easy and yummy. I will make this again.

 Raquel (Michigan) says:
I made this recipe with spicy brown mustard and flour (as a previous comment suggested) everything else as in the recipe and everybody like it! The spicy mustard add a nice tangy touch to the flavor and the flour made it thick on the chicken.The kids (13 & 9) love it and asked me to do it again soon. I will definitely recommended it. Thanks for posting it.

Very very good! Used beer instead of the water and half the sugar. Make extra sauce, you will want it for dipping!
