Quick and easy! I've used it with both chicken breast and pork chops in the oven and on the stove top. I'm thinking about using it in a slow cooker next. It is a wonderfully tasty sauce!

My husband requests this all the time! We did find that there is no need for the brown sugar though. We use Mott's chunky applesauce and Kraft Thick and Spicy BBQ sauce, those are plenty sweet enough!

This recipe was delicious and soo easy to make. I couldn't find chunky applesauce, so I used regular applesauce & diced up some fresh gala apples which was delicious! Definitely a recipe to make when you're trying to impress or pressed for time! :) Definitely a keeper!

A) This was so easy and fast to make. B) After trying the sauce my husband said "We can have it on pork and beef and turkey and venison..." It was a hit, will definitely be making again.

I was wrong...I used Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce!
The sauce on this is delicious. I have used it with chicken tenders and boneless pork chops. I used Sticky Fingers spicy & sweet bbq sauce.

This was amazing. I made it just as written and it was terrific. I paired it with the New Potatoes with Dill. Great meal. Everyone loved it.

I made as described but with 1/2 teaspoon chili powder and a regular barbecue sauce. My wife thought it was too spicy, It was about right for me. Overall a very nice flavor.

very fast---very tasty. I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs (preference), did not use brown sugar and still sweet enough, did not use chili powder. Very good, can't wait to try it with pork. Probably will try in crock pot if I make a larger quantity. Very tasty!!
