I’m excited to share with you that this month, Kraft Barbecue Sauce is celebrating the launch of a newly revamped line of sauces with recipes that feature high-quality ingredients like tomatoes, sweet molasses, cider vinegar and cane sugar because that’s what we barbecue sauce lovers want – bold flavors, high-quality ingredients, and no high fructose corn syrup! Am I right?! Well, Kraft is bringing it! In addition, the sauces will be in a new package design.

New Kraft Barbecue Sauce is available in eight varieties across smoky, sweet and spicy flavors: Original, Hickory Smoke, Sweet Honey (pictured below), Mesquite Smoke, Sweet Brown Sugar, Sweet & Spicy, Spicy Honey, and Thick & Spicy. Doesn’t all this talk about sauce make you want to get your barbecue on?!

The recipe I’m sharing today is 4-ingredients easy, but is already on the dinner rotation again for our family, we liked it so much! All you need is boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced bacon, Kraft bbq sauce, and sliced cheddar cheese.

You can see in the picture of my prep set up the little bit of snow left on the ground. We actually made this a few days before we got hit hard with another storm, so we were lucky it wasn’t snowing on us. We’re hard core, but maybe not so much when the snow is coming down, haha.
