"A delicious grilled recipe that makes the meat very tender. The part that takes the longest is allowing the meat to marinate!"

I too used the Sweet Baby Rays Hot N Spicy Sauce and Real Maple Syrup. Excellent choices if I do say so myself! The chicken was sweet with a little tang, just how I was hoping it would come out. Just yummy!
