This easy BBQ chicken is flavored with both a smoky dry rub and a homemade BBQ sauce. Perfect alongside baked beans, grilled veggies, or a simple salad!
Add the rub, chicken breasts, and a small drizzle of oil to a ziploc bag. Smoosh the chicken around in order to coat all sides with the rub. Set in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
Pull the chicken out of the fridge to rest for 5 minutes while you preheat the grill.
Heat the grill to high heat. Using oil drizzled over paper towels pinched in tongs, brush the oil on the grates of the grill.
Add the chicken, top side down, and turn the heat to medium.
Cook the chicken for 4-6 minutes or until the chicken releases from the grill.
Flip the chicken and baste with BBQ sauce.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, flip the chicken and baste the other side then turn it right back over to finish cooking for 3 more minutes or until 165 degrees F.
Set on a plate, tent with foil and serve in 5 minutes.
Notes
May be stored for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.
