I have this recipe and I do not cook with alcohol; I have substituted 3/8 c. orange juice for the bourbon and I have also substituted some honey for the bourbon. I tried using chicken broth as a substitute but we liked the orange juice or honey better.
Hope this helps.

This is a post that Ron Douglas placed in our Cooking Tips forum and it is an excellent reference! Hope this helps and much thanks to Ron!!
