Grilled Chicken With Sweet Carolina Barbecue Sauce image

This makes the best barbecue chicken on the planet. The extra effort of making the marinade is a definite payoff. The sweet mustard glaze gives the grilled chicken a wonderful crisp coating. The chicken does need to marinate overnight so plan ahead. This mustard sauce is also fantastic on pork chops. MAKE AHEAD: The sauce can be safely stored in a lidded jar in the refrigerator for a month. WINE: The sweet barbecue sauce mate well with a full-bodied, fruity grenache such as Domaine Lafond Roc-Epine Lirac Blanc 2004 or an off dry fruity Reisling such as the very easy to drink 2002 Reisling - Domaine Fernand Engel.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken didn't turn out as well as I hoped. Maybe I didn't cook it for long enough.

This recipe is a bit too complicated for me. I prefer simpler recipes that don't require a lot of ingredients or steps.

I've tried many grilled chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, and the sauce is to die for.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so juicy and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect complement.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of grilled chicken on the weekend, and then I used the leftovers to make this dish. It was quick and easy, and it tasted amazing!

The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely try this recipe again, but I'll use a different sauce.

I didn't have any sweet Carolina barbecue sauce on hand, so I used a different type of barbecue sauce. It still turned out great, but I'm sure it would have been even better with the authentic sauce.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was amazing! I'll definitely try this recipe again, but I'll make sure to cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time.

I grilled the chicken a bit longer than the recipe called for, and it came out slightly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was absolutely delicious!

I substituted brown sugar for the granulated sugar in the sauce, and it turned out great! The sauce had a slightly richer flavor that complemented the chicken perfectly.
