This recipe is very good however after reading all of the reviews and looking at other white barbecue sauce recipes online, I decided to change the white barbecue sauce just a little. This is how I made it- 1/2 cup light mayo, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/4-1/2 teaspoon Chipotle chili powder, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, dash of salt , and 1/2 to 1 full packet of splenda. I used half, and it was perfect for me. The chicken rub is delicious and with the changes I made to the sauce, I will definitely be making this dish again.

The chicken is seared over direct heat then moved to the cooler side of the grill. If using a charcoal grill, stack the coals on the right side of the grill.
