- Place chicken in resealable plastic food bag and pour 1 c. over chicken. Through plastic bag, work marinade around chicken. Seal bag and place in shallow pan. Chill overnight, turning bag occasionally.
- Simmer remaining 1 c. sauce in small saucepan, uncovered, 5 min. Strain, discarding solids. (Can be refrigerated up to 1 week. Reheat before serving.)
- Soak mesquite chips in water to cover for 1 hour, then drain. Prepare grill for indirect grilling. When warm, toss half of chips on each pile of coals, if using charcoal. For gas, put chips in smoker box.
- Transfer chicken from marinade to pan; reserve marinade. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Grill chicken over indirect heat, turning after 30 min and brushing often with reserved marinade (use it all), till fully cooked and bronzed, about 60 to 70 min. Internal temperature (taken in thickest part of thigh) should be at least 165 degrees. Pass hot barbecue sauce separately.
- This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
- Comments: This barbecue sauce has a thinner consistency than most; it's used as a marinade and also as a sauce to pass at the table.
