Bacon Bourbon BBQ Chicken - THE BEST chicken EVER! Chicken coated in a BBQ Bacon paste and brushed with Bourbon BBQ sauce. Chicken, bacon, bourbon, bbq sauce, salt, garlic powder, onion power, pepper, paprika, brown sugar. We made this twice in one week it was SO good. Even our picky eaters asked for seconds! Make this!! #grilling #chicken #grilledchicken #bacon
In a food processor, combine uncooked bacon, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika, and brown sugar. Pulse until smooth.
Put chicken in a bowl or dish and rub with bacon paste until well coated.
Whisk together BBQ sauce and bourbon.
Grill chicken until done - 12 to 15 minutes. Brush chicken on both sides with BBQ sauce mixture and cook an additional minute.
Serve with remaining BBQ sauce.
Notes:
If you don't want to use the different seasonings in the bacon paste, you can substitute 6 Tbsp of BBQ seasoning.Please note the bacon is used RAW in the chicken rub.My favorite BBQ sauces are G. Hughes, Sweet Baby Rays, Stubbs, and Williamson Brothers.
