I'm at a shitty point in my life where I'm just close enough to rock bottom to smell it but far enough that I still have something to lose.

One thing I still have control over is what I'm going to have for lunch. I decided on chicken legs. I'm going to smoke them with Applewood and score the legs so they can hold bbq sauce. I'm going to the store soon but don't have a favorite sauce, and I'm looking for recommendations. What bbq sauce is best to cook onto the chicken legs?

I always end up going back to Sweet Baby Ray's. Every once in awhile I'll try something fancier but I always end up going back.

SBR seems to be a very good all around sauce universally available. A lot of the others mentioned seems to be a specialty or regional sauce.

Heres my trick. I use a braising brush and brush it on the chicken (or ribs, or turkey) BEFORE i cook it.

The brown sugar one especially. Ill also add a little of my own seasoning if i want.

Just a thin coat makes a glaze. Its all you need. Cook and eat.
