Mustard, Brown Sugar & Beer Chicken image

I love this hearty sauce, both as a marinade for baked chicken or as a basting sauce for grilling, or marinate then baste & grill for a whole lot of flavor! It's sweet, smoky, tangy, and a little spicy... Cook time only includes cooking time for the sauce itself; actual cooking time depends on the method used.

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 chicken breasts
1 cup ballpark prepared yellow mustard
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup beer
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons butter, room temp
1 1/2 teaspoons liquid smoke
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan, combine mustard, brown sugar, vinegar and beer.
  • Season with chili powder, black pepper and cayenne.
  • Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat (do not boil-- the sugar will scorch).
  • Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.
  • Stir in Worcestershire Sauce, butter and Liquid Smoke.
  • Simmer another 15 minutes.
  • Add the Tabasco Sauce and stir to blend.
  • This can be used as an overnight marinade for chicken breasts (or any other pieces you wish) then baked or grilled.
  • If grilling, reserve some of the sauce for a basting sauce (or make a little extra).
