MARINADE
- 1⁄2 cup white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 1⁄4 cups vegetable oil

MAPLE BARBECUE SAUCE
- 2 large onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic (optional)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1⁄4 cups ketchup
- 2 1⁄2 cups chicken broth
- 3⁄4 cup cider vinegar (use only cider vinegar!)
- 1⁄2 cup maple syrup, plus
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
directions
- In a bowl whisk together the vinegar and salt.
- Add in the oil slowly whisking until emulsified (you can do this on a processor also).
- Divide the chicken pieces between two bowls and pour the marinade over them; cover each bowl and chill for 24 hours, turning occasionally.
- To make the maple barbecuesauce: heat oil in a large heavy saucepan, add in the onions and garlic; saute for 5 minutes.
- Add in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, ketchup, broth, vinegar and maple syrup; bring to a boil and simmer stirring occasionally for about 1 hour or until it is reduced to about 3-1/2 cups.
- When ready to grill, remove the chicken from the marinade and grill the chicken about 4 inches over hot coals for 15 minutes on each side, or until cooked through, baste with some of the barbecue sauce, and grill for another 2 minutes more (make certain to only baste the chicken with the sauce the last couple minutes of grilling or the skin tends to burn).
- Serve the chicken with the remaining sauce.
- DELICIOUS!
