I use thighs for this however, you can use whatever you choose. This is a very easy and cost efficient recipe to feed a crowd.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This grilled chicken is fantastic! The chipotle brings the heat and smokiness to this dish. We love how the beer helps tenderize the chicken and makes it super moist. Brown sugar and agave nectar add just a hint of sweetness. We let ours marinate for 48 hours and used skinless, boneless chicken thighs. This recipe turned out delicious and definitely feeds a crowd.
