BBQ chicken

Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken breast
• 1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray's)

The Rub:

• 2 tbsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp white sugar
• 1 tsp brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 1/2 tsp basil
• 1 1/2 tsp thyme
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/2 tsp clove
• 1/2 tsp cumin

Cooking Instructions

1. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel. Once slightly dry, apply rub generously, rubbing into the skin. You can be rough, it won't shout much. Allow to sit for at least 1/2 hour prior to grilling.

2. Cook on grill. I know this is a difficult concept so I will explain it. Place chicken over direct heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side to sear rub on the chicken. Move to indirect heat for the rest 6 to 7 minutes per side. With a few minutes left on the grill, apply BBQ sauce generously.

3. Serve.

Additional Comments

The rub can be stored for a month or so in an airtight container and stored in the frig. This rub is excellent with red meats of all sort
