  • Prep Time 20 minutes
  • Total Time 30 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup ketchup
    • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
    • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
    • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1/2 cup light-brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup molasses
    • 1 cut-up chicken (3 pounds)
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper

Directions

  1. Heat grill to medium. Simmer sauce ingredients (first 7 ingredients listed above) in a small saucepan over medium heat until reduced to about 1 1/4 cups, 5 to 7 minutes. Divide barbecue sauce between two bowls; use one for basting and set aside the other for serving.
  2. In a large bowl, toss chicken with vegetable oil; season well with coarse salt and ground pepper.
  3. Lightly oil grates; place chicken on grill. Cover grill; cook, turning frequently, until chicken registers 165 degrees (160 degrees for breast) on an instant-read thermometer, 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover grill; continue cooking, basting frequently with sauce, until chicken is glazed thoroughly, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve with remaining sauce.
