Tips:
- To achieve the best flavor, use fresh, ripe cherries. If fresh cherries are unavailable, frozen unsweetened cherries can be used as a substitute.
- For a smoky flavor, use a good quality bourbon. A wheated bourbon is recommended, as it has a smoother flavor that won't overpower the other ingredients in the sauce.
- If you don't have brown sugar, you can substitute granulated sugar. However, brown sugar will give the sauce a richer flavor.
- The sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. When ready to use, simply reheat the sauce over low heat until warmed through.
- This sauce is not only great on chicken, but it can also be used on pork, beef, or fish. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for appetizers.

This Sweet Cherry Bourbon Barbecue Sauce is the perfect combination of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors. It's easy to make and can be used on a variety of dishes.
