Like all simple recipes this one requires some pretty quality ingredients to make it worthwhile. This would be great with a homemade bbq sauce, but I was satisfied with KC Masterpiece Hickory BBQ, which I had picked up because it was rated highly in the Cooks Illustrated taste tests. A poor bbq sauce would make this recipes inedible, I am sure. I used a thick cut, smoky bacon, and actually discarded it after cooking, so I can't speak to its consistency. It added a good flavor to the sauce. I also added in some red onion (ringed) and some garlic powder before I poured over the sauce. I used a whole bottle for four hefty sized chicken breasts (along with their tenders). This was a simple approach to BBQ chicken which I wouldn't have thought of. It was tasty with some Southern-style mustard greens and rice.
