Loved this sauce. No reason to buy jars of barbecue sauce if it's this easy. I made 1/3 the recipe (there are only two of us) with leftover breakfast coffee, covered a cookie sheet with foil, then cooking spray. Brushed sauce on chicken leg quarters and roasted for 1 hour in a 375 oven with sweet potatoes, put asparagus next to chicken and potoatoes for the last 20 minutes of cooking. Squeezed lemon juice over everything with plenty of black pepper and garlic salt. Fabulous, easy, no clean up.
