My whole family loves this. I made it once a week last summer.

I made this recipe tonight and what a great flavor!! the chicken was moist and very delicious. I would definately make this again and am sure I can use this sauce on pork and it would also be great! I marinated the chicken breasts in the sauce for a few hours and turned out very flavorful.

Next time I might try with other citrus, such as lime! Very good.

I thought it was okay but my husband loved it. My four year old thought it tasted funny but when i gave him extra bbq sauce to dip it in he ate it and liked it. I do think it needs to marinade longer than thirty minutes though

This wasn't the greatest thing in the world. I followed the directions to the letter and it was a big let down. It just tasted like regular barbecue chicken. It needs a little more orange zest and orange juice.

I needed a recipe that was quick and easy for a late supper -- we used this recipe minus the orange zest (didn't have any on hand) and it was FANTASTIC! The guys gobbled it up and told me to make it again soon!

I have given this recipe to other people and they love it too! It is great! I am making it again for company tonight. Thank you.

This recipe was not for us- it tasted like bbq sauce with a bad orange-y aftertaste. I did not think the flavors meshed well, and I would not make it again.

I love this recipe as a base for something else. I always add a few more this to this recipe (like chili garlic sauce), and it always turns out great.
