i would like to get better a taking photographs of savory foods. its one thing to take a pretty picture of buttercream cupcakes. its a different story to make a hunk of meat look appetizing. something to work on. but i wanted to share this recipe for honey barbecued broilers. i make this chicken at least twice each week during the summer. it is SO tasty.

honey barbecued broilers
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced (i use 3 cloves. i LOVE garlic)
1 teaspoon course kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried ground marjoram
1/2 teaspoon dried ground mustard
dash ground pepper

chicken (i use one tray of boneless, skinless tenders)

combine melted butter with rest of ingredients. use half of the INJECTABLE concoction as the marinade. barbecue your chicken. heat up the remainder of the sauce and pour over the barbecued chicken.
