Instructions
Prepare the Injection
Melt the butter in a sauce pan. Let cool to room temperature and add the seasonings and spices. Mix well.
Prepare the Chicken
Rinse and pat dry the chicken pieces. Using a syringe fill it with the marinade and insert into the meat. Start to press the liquid into the chicken WHILE pulling the syringe out of the meat. For larger pieces, move the syringe over about an inch and repeat the process.
Mix the Seasonings
In a clean bowl mix the seasoning together and sprinkle all over the chicken pieces.
Time to Cook
Prepare your grill or smoker for indirect medium heat. Smoke or roast the chicken until the internal temperature reaches 140 F or so... then brush with the BBQ sauce. The chicken is cooked when breast meat reaches 165 F and the thighs (or dark meat) reaches 175 F. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving with your favorite side dishes.
