I'm too stressed out to function and pissed at the world. What's the best bbq sauce to put on chicken legs?

I'm at a shitty point in my life where I'm just close enough to rock bottom to smell it but far enough that I still have something to lose.

One thing I still have control over is what I'm going to have for lunch. I decided on chicken legs. I'm going to smoke them with Applewood and score the legs so they can hold bbq sauce. I'm going to the store soon but don't have a favorite sauce, and I'm looking for recommendations. What bbq sauce is best to cook onto the chicken legs?

Frank's Hot Sauce is used in a lot of places in our area as their sauce, Admittedly though, Seattle isn't really known for their BBQ, but I find it good.
- Seattle Isn't known for bbq because it rains all the time. In fact all i know about Seattle is CHOP and that it rains a bunch and that Idaho potatoes are cheap there.
  
  Anyway, do you brush on your hot sauce before bbqinf or after?
  
  When I've tried it at home, I just slather it on all over it and maybe add some honey sometimes right before cooking. Then do a second coat witha brush 10 minutes in.
- Seattle....wow
  
  Are you impressed by my location or our bbq skills?
- I also live in the seattle, I have never once seen Franks red being used as barbecue sauce.
  
  I feel like most places here are making their own, and they are all coke or Dr. Pepper based.
  
  I'm allergic to a lot of shit so I've asked about ingredients, I bet it's way more common than you realize. I'm not naming any names because they were kind enough to let me know.
  
  Interesting. I will keep an eye out.
