This recipe is one that my Dad always does in the dutch oven, only he uses pork. I always use chicken and do it in the crockpot. Sometimes I make the catalina and BBQ sauce from scratch. So, I'm including those recipes on this one. You could probably cut the sugar and honey in half on both the catalina dressing and bbq sauces, I usually cut it down and Andrew still often thinks that it is too sweet. I'm pretty sure that the catalina and honey BBQ sauce recipes came from allrecipes.com. The recipe is much better if it sits over night in the fridge, this is one reason it's a favorite Sunday dish in our home. I will fix and mix ingredients in crockpot on Saturday, and put in the fridge over night. Then just turn it on low before church, and start my rice in my rice cooker, it's no work Sunday and it tastes better because it sat in the fridge the night before.
