The Southern United States is known for its grilling mastery. For this recipe, we drew inspiration from North Carolina, where a distinctive style of barbecue sauce was invented. Made with a generous amount of vinegar to help preserve the meat, it’s a far cry from the thick, smoky and sweet sauces more typical of Texas-style barbecue. In true North Carolina fashion, the tangy sauce is brushed onto the chicken as it cooks, and served on the side for extra punch. To ensure tender, flavourful meat, brine the chicken beforehand with salt and spices. It’s a Southern classic worth discovering… or rediscovering.
