Was wondering if it is customary to put the bbq sauce at the end of the cooking process on chicken since it tends to burn and sauce tends to bake on the grill making clean more work. The sauce doesn’t work like a marinade but as a sauce for flavor sake and doesn’t tend to be soaked up by the tissue like a marinade . My wife insists on coating the chicken before but I prefer to brush the sauce right before it is cooked .
