Doug's Sweet and Spicy Mixed Barbecued Chicken
We have a 33-year-old daughter with CF who loves barbecued chicken. Barbecued chicken is a nutritious and delicious food and a great way to bring the family together. Serving two different barbecue flavors is a great way to make sure there is something that everyone will like.

Instructions
Step 1
Wash and dry chicken pieces.
Step 2
Cut breasts in half with a poultry shear.
Step 3
Coat chicken pieces with olive oil.
Step 4
Rub on Spike and pepper and place in covered container overnight in refrigerator to let seasoning sink in.
Step 5
Brush olive oil onto grill while cold.
Step 6
Heat grill to a medium heat (350-400 on barbecue lid thermometer).
Step 7
Cook chicken pieces on both sides for 5-7 minutes or until about 2/3 done (the exact cooking time will depend on your grill. Thick breasts will take a minute or two longer than thighs).
Step 8
Apply mild BBQ sauce to 1/2 of the pieces and apply hot BBQ sauce to the other half.
Step 9
Cook chicken pieces for 2 min on each side on lower heat or until fully cooked, being careful not to burn the sauce (use a thermometer or cut and check to ensure that the meat is fully cooked).
Step 10
Baste while cooking with additional BBQ sauce to your taste.
