The Perfect BBQ Recipe by Big Grill Shop

Welcome to Big Grill Shop, your ultimate destination for all things BBQ! We are passionate about grilling and bringing you the best recipes to make your BBQ sessions truly unforgettable. In this article, we present our mouth-watering recipe for Sweet and Spicy Grilled BBQ Chicken. Get ready to indulge your taste buds!

Ingredients:

  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 cup of BBQ sauce (choose your favorite brand or try our homemade recipe below)
  • 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of paprika
  • 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon of onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon of chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (adjust according to your spice preference)
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to make the dry rub.
  3. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken thighs and rub them with the prepared dry rub, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated.
  4. Grill the chicken on the preheated grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  5. While the chicken is grilling, prepare the BBQ sauce. You can either use your favorite store-bought sauce or try our homemade recipe below.
  6. For the homemade BBQ sauce, in a saucepan, combine BBQ sauce, brown sugar, and a dash of cayenne pepper. Heat over medium heat until the sauce is warm and the sugar has dissolved.
  7. Brush the chicken with the BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of grilling, allowing the sauce to caramelize and create a flavorful crust.
  8. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro or parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
