    This is good, yes, but it didn't blow me away as I had hoped--doesn't the title of the recipe sound amazing?

    The ginger beer--I used Reed's--really overpowered the hoisin and other ingredients in the sauce for me. Maybe I'm missing the point here, but what I made turned out tasting more like a jerk glaze--really sweet with just a hint of the citrus and black pepper at the end. I added some cayenne to cut up the sweetness a little.

    Again, this made a good sandwich after the chicken stewed about an hour. I think I was just hoping for something more.

    don't get me wrong we ate it and had leftovers, but in the end with all the ingredients the zest of the recipe was lost...it just tasted like BBQ sauce? nothing special....and i got every ingredient, including the ginger beer(which i love but it was lost with all the other stuff! i suggest to make it simplier with less ketchup and hoisin.

    This recipe has a lot of small easy steps. The ingredient list is lengthy, and there are many small steps. I used so many different pots!

    That being said, it was tasty - I enjoyed our meal. I was not however blown away, and for the amount of work I was a little disappointed. I likely won't make this again because of the time required to put all the ingredients together.

    Were I to make it again I would not add the bacon to the biscuits, but place full pieces on top of the pulled chicken as I felt the taste got lost in the biscuits.

    My biscuits took much less time to cook than 25 minutes, but my over also tends to cook hot and be uneven. I would suggest watching them. Mine also did not puff up too much, so you may want to make them more than an inch thick - though ours were tasty at 1 inch.

    Worked great and was very easy....

    I did not have ginger beer....so I just used regular beer

    Also, I added 1 1/2 Tb of chlli sauce which gave it a great, but not too much, kick

    I did a half recipe of this sauce, threw 6 raw boneless chicken breasts in the crockpot and let it cook on low for 2 hours. The chicken shredded up easily and it was delish! I didn't have ginger beer so I threw a brown in there and added some ginger spice.

    This recipe is a favorite in our home. A little work with a lot of ingredients, but definitely worth it.

    I was in a bit of a hurry so I didn't make the biscuits, just the chicken which I served open face over some crusty bread. My husband and I really liked the chicken..had a good flavor and was pretty easy. I substituted soy sauce for the worstershire sauce (I discovered I was out too late to run get any which probably gave it a slightly more asian flavor. I think the chicken would also be good served over rice with some veggies like a stirfry. So, if doing both the chicken and the biscuits is a bit more time than you want to spend, try just the chicken!!

    The bbq sauce is zesty and quite tasty. Loved the idea of using a rotisserie chicken. The biscuits went very well with the sauce. Would definitely fix this again.
