Thursday: Grilled Chicken Thighs with White Barbecue Sauce White BBQ Sauce & Grilled Asparagus

I love when chicken thighs go on sale...they are so versatile and there are so many recipes to chose from.  I grabbed this recipe so I could spend some time cooking on my grill.  Going to make the white bbq sauce with it as well.  Serving with a side of sweet potato fries and asparagus.

okay, so I forgot to put the sauce on the plate when I took the picture...but we did use it and it was yummy!
