After 30 years, we finally got around to trying this recipe last night. It was simple, easy and very good. Recipe does not say what to do with the marinade, so DH boiled it down and poured it over the chicken when served. We just used bone in thighs. Since we only cooked 2 thighs, he cooked them on the hibachi (sp.?). Sorry Weber.
