This is the best barbecue chicken recipe ever! A few years ago, I made this for the first time, on July 3rd. I say that because we had a lot of people over for fourth of July and had grilled steaks. I went ahead and put the leftover chicken out, as well. The ones that tried the chicken preferred it over the steak. It's that good.

Oh, how I love Tyler. I had never brined my chicken before, but I probably always will from now on since it made such a huge difference in how moist the finished product was! I used bone-in chicken breasts and allowed them to sit in the brine for a few hours. I loved the method of cooking these by splitting the time between a grill pan and the oven. I did not make the barbecue sauce as included here, but I bet it's outstanding. I used ready-made barbecue sauce for the sake of time, but I will definitely be trying this one given that the reviews are so good!

This truly is the Ultimate, Tyler! I used bone-in chicken breasts instead of leg/thigh and it came out amazing! Chicken breasts are very hard to come out moist, and these were just perfect, flavorful and juicy. But my favorite was definitely the sauce. It was lick your fingers delicious. I had some sauce left over after finishing the chicken and managed to slather it over everything for the next week: pork chops, even steak. DELICIOUS! The sauce is also pretty idiot-proof. I don't use bacon and it still tastes fantastic. The second time, I didn't have fresh thyme and mistakenly put in 1 tbs of paprika as opposed to 1 tsp. STILL tasted fantastic! Thanks for an amazing recipe Tyler!

Tyler, you're terrific. The ultimate barbecued chicken recipe. I did have to save time and use bottled store-bought sauce, the basic chicken technique and brine recipe are right on the mark! Five stars for sure!

This recipe is awesome. The chicken was deliciously moist and the sauce was very flavorful. It was also fairly easy to prepare this dish.

This was delicious chicken! I added a few things like a tablespoon of red pepper flakes to both the brine and sauce, we like things with a kick, and a sprig of rosemary to the brine and 2 to the thyme bundle. I grow herbs in my backyard so I had it on hand but you can totally omit it. We cooked it entirely on the grill just basting lightly throughout the cooking process. I mean, how can you call it bbq chicken if it only spends 10 minutes on a grill. It is definitely a new staple recipe in our house.

Delicious and easy!! I found the cumin flavor to be strong for my tastes so I would use a bit less next time but my guests loved it just the way it was. I also used bone in breasts, thighs and drumsticks but still used Tyler's brining and grilling/baking method. Turned out wonderful. A must try recipe!
