My husband enjoyed this recipe. I thought it was odd tasting. The onions dont cook enough and should be cooked before the chicken. And the taste is all wrong to me. It needed some pep. Maybe hot sauce or something.

I've been making this BBQ chicken weekly for over 20 years and my family never tires of it! I use boneless chicken breasts and grill them, make the sauce on the stove, and serve them together at the table so everyone can add the amount of sauce they prefer. Thanks, Frank!

I'm a gourmet cook and often spend several hours preparing a meal, but every so often I want to make something quick, simple, but delicious for my family. This is, by far, one of the best and easiest recipes I have ever made. It's a family favorite and I make it often. You'd be hard pressed to find anything like this that tastes better.

This recipe is one of our favorites and it's super easy! I found it years ago in a Chesapeake Bay cookbook; the recipe had been submitted by Frank Perdue himself. I jazz it up a little by adding some Worcestershire, Old Bay and Tabasco to the sauce. Also, I baste the chicken about every 15 minutes. The result is very moist and tasty chicken and the onions are great! This one tastes even better the next day, you know what I mean!!!
