"This has to be one of the most amazing chicken dishes I have ever made or eaten. It's really scary to watch people just attack this dish and practically inhale it in one breath.

"I love this recipe because it is so easy and it calls for hardly any ingredients, and I always have these ingredients in my pantry.

"I almost didn't want to share this ribs recipe because this is one of the dishes that I make that keep my sons coming back home! These can be done with baby back or regular pork ribs.
