Notes
- Barbecue sauce: Choose a barbecue sauce that you like. If you like a sauce with a little heat, it will give your finished dish a bit of a kick. If you choose a sauce with brown sugar or honey, it will make your sauce a little sweeter.
- Brown sugar: Feel free to use a little more or less to taste.
- Bourbon: You can substitute an equal amount of apple juice for the bourbon. Also, if you don't want to buy a large bottle of bourbon just for this recipe, mini bottles are a great choice for a small amount of bourbon.
