Ingredients

  • 8 oz barbecue sauce (I used Sweet Baby Ray's)
  • 1/8 cup bourbon
  • 2 lbs chicken breast
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 6 slices uncooked bacon (cut into small pieces)

Instructions

  • Light the grill and heat to medium-high
  • In a small bowl, combine the BBQ sauce and bourbon. Mix well.
  • In a food processor, combine the kosher salt, white pepper, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, dark brown sugar, smoked paprika, and bacon. Pulse until completely smooth.
  • Put the chicken pieces in a bowl and then rub with the bacon paste. Once well-coated, thread the chicken pieces onto skewers.
  • Place the kebabs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until nearly cooked through.
  • Brush the kebabs with the bourbon barbecue sauce and cook for an additional minute on each side.
  • Serve with the remaining BBQ sauce.
