Cooked up some BBQ the last few days.

First did some free range chicken quarters. Cherry wood, raised direct, 290 for about 1.5 hours.

Sauced with about 30 minutes to go.

    Beautiful color on those chicken quarters! Did you baste them with anything?

    Thanks...I sauced with a commercial honey-garlic BBQ sauce that I doctored with hot sauce and pepper. Simple sometimes is the best.

    I absolutely love cherry and thankful I have an endless supply :) That is a big factor on the colour. Colour is secondary...the taste is what steers me toward the cherry. Second by the fragrant nature during a cook.
    Thanks for the comments.
