Huli Huli Chicken (Hawaiian Grilled BBQ Chicken)

1  cup catsup

1 cup soy sauce

1 cup brown sugar

1 can frozen pineapple juice concentrate.

2-4 garlic cloves, minced

1-2  inch piece of ginger root, finely minced

Two drops of worcestershire sauce to taste

fresh cracked black pepper to taste

1-2 tablespoon paprika

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients except chicken, and brush over chicken pieces. Cook chicken on an grill until done, will will typically take about 40 minutes. Brush chicken with sauce repeatedly during the cooking period. 

Special Equipment

Smoker bbq grill or hibachi. Gas propane grill will work just as good with the lava stones!

Mesquite coals or kiawe wood.  It's the wood that flavors it authentic Hawaiian huli huli style!

Mesquite chunks (soaked in water at least 1 hour)

Marinade mop

Enjoy!!
