The recipe works in 3 stages: making the bbq sauce, poaching the chicken, then grilling the chicken on the barbecue.

Ìý

Poaching the chicken ensures that there will be no raw or undercooked meat while grilling.

Ìý

The Carolina Gold can be made a day in advance and can be served as a dipping sauce for meats and veggies as well.

BBQ Chicken With Carolina Gold Sauce ÌýCook Time: 10-15 mins

Ìý

When the hot charcoals of your bbq grill have reduced to steady heat without high flames, grill the poached chicken turning every so often to establish an even roasted skin. Brush the Carolina Gold sauce on the barbecued pieces to caramelize the sauce to the chicken. Grill on each side for 1-2 mins only to avoid burning.

To cook Ribs:

Smoke at 225F (110C) for approx. 3 hours when the internal temperature of the ribs reaches 71C soak the meat in apple juice and wrap in extra thick foil. Cook for 2 more hours untilÌý internal temperature is 180-180F (82C).
