Absolutely Classic Barbecued Chicken

The Low-Carb Barbecue Book

3 pounds cup-up chicken (on the bone, skin on - choose light or dark meat, a

s you prefer)

1/2 cup Classic Barbecue Rub

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup oil

1/2 cup Kansas City Barbecue Sauce

Get your fire going with your grill set up for indirect smoking.

While the grill's heating, sprinkle the chicken with all but a tablespoon of

the rub. Combine the reserved rub with the chicken broth and oil to make a

mop.

When your fire is ready, place your chicken over a drip pan, add your chips

or chunks, and close the grill. Let it smoke for half an hour before you

start to baste it with the mop, then mop it every time you add more chips or

chunks. Smoke your chicken for about 90 minutes, or until an instant-read

thermometer registers 180 degrees.

When your chicken is just about done, baste the skin side with the Kansas

City Barbecue Sauce and move it over the fire, skin-side down for 5 minutes

or so. Baste the other side with the finishing sauce, turn it over, and give

it another 5 minutes over the fire. Serve with the rest of the sauce.

Feel free to use this same basic method with any rub and any sauce!
