BBQ is different in NC depending on which side of the state you come from....either sweet and hickory smoke, or a vinegar base....
I love to soak chicken (bone in) in some warm water for a couple of hours.
Makes it very tender and then throw it on the grill. When the outside starts to brown just a little I put my sauce on it. It consists of:
2 cups ketchup
2 cups tomato sauce
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 1/4 cups red wine vinegar
1/2 cup molasses
some hickory-flavored liquid smoke
a little butter
[Then,to taste:] garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, paprika, celery seed, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper (probably like 1/4 to 1/2 tsp each, depending on how spicy you like your sauce)
I've been cooking so long I just throw stuff together and to be honest I think I got this offline. But its really good.
