Hint From Ken:
The buttermilk marinade seems to really work well with chicken and is excellent with bone in chicken too… Grilled or smoked. This thick marinate keeps chicken from drying out on the grill. The two sauces blend well together with this method. There are a lot of ingredient so to simply the process just place everything out pre-measured before you start. Remember not to put chicken on the grill cold right out of the refrigerator. Let it sit out a little (not too long) before cooking for better results. When done, slice one piece to make sure meat is cooked through. Juices will run clear when properly cooked.
