Recipe: BBQ Chicken

I'm only one week in and I've already been slacking off on posting....oh well. I decided to post this recipe because we've been fighting off the bug to grill out since last Thursday. As luck would have it, now that we are finally ready to grill out the weather has gone back to freezing so we'll have to hold off on making this for another week or so.

This recipe for BBQ chicken is a go to favorite that's perfect to take to cookouts or any other summer party. The recipe is simple because the chicken is precooked and then marinated in the sauce. Whenever you are ready to eat all you have to do is grill the onions and heat the chicken through... it's great on its own or served as a chicken sandwich. You've gotta try this recipe - my mom was able to feed crowds with this when I was growing up!

2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
¼ c. packed brown sugar
