MMM, this was very good. My husband loved it! I also added onions to it while it was cooking and then topped it off with a slice of pinapple. I loved it!

My family loved this -- especially the kids knowing there's chocolate in the sauce!

I made this recipe in my Crock Pot. If you choose to do so, I would suggest only using half the sauce called for, the Crock Pot always makes more.

Wow! What a tasty dish this is. I'll never settle for plain old barbecue chicken again. Just the right balance of sweetness and spice. Our new favorite!
