This is a mustard-based barbecue sauce, which might sound strange to a few people, but is actually a delicious Southern barbecue sauce. The combination of mustard and molasses gives barbecued meats a sweet and sour flavor.

Awesome recipe!, Member Pikara81

This was super easy to make and really delicious on chicken drumsticks. I combined a little Dijon mustard with yellow mustard because I didn't have enough of either and it came out really tasty. I will definitely be making this again!
