Bacon Wrapped Chicken With Dry Rub and BBQ Sauce
Description
Bacon Wrapped Chicken With Dry Rub and BBQ Sauce employs a Stubb's brand barbecue spice rub for seasoning the chicken legs, which are then wrapped with several slices of bacon. Cooking begins on a medium-heat grill over foil to prevent sticking and allow indirect heat to bring the chicken close to done. Applying a sweet heat BBQ sauce before a short direct grill gives a caramelized and sticky finish.
The accompanying pineapple skewers feature chunks threaded on skewers, optionally sprinkled with brown sugar for caramelization during grilling, and finished with coconut flakes to add texture and flavor. These skewers are grilled for just a few minutes to warm and lightly caramelize.
Overall, the dish combines savory, smoky chicken wrapped in bacon with a sweet, tropical side to balance the flavors. The method ensures the chicken cooks fully while maintaining juiciness and the bacon crisps suitably.
