I used 8 chicken leg quarters for the chicken pieces. I think this would be a great addition to my Once a Month Cooking plan as I can throw the chicken with the rub on it into the freezer and then defrost when I need it. I followed the recipe as directed using Bobbie Q sauce recipe#59772 for the barbque sauce, freshly squeezed OJ, and dark soy sauce. I ended up just baking the chicken in the oven as I couldn't get the barbque grill started by myself. My 7 year old gobbled up the chicken and thought it was great. The rest of us thought it was pretty good too. Thanks for posting!
