    Prep Time 5 minutes
    Total Time 35 minutes
    Serves 4

    Ingredients
    Vegetable oil, for grates
    2 tablespoons paprika
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    Coarse salt and ground pepper
    1 chicken (about 3 pounds), cut into 10 pieces
    2 cups Simple Barbecue Sauce

    Directions
    1. Heat a grill to medium; lightly oil grates. In a small bowl, combine paprika, chili powder, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; sprinkle spice rub all over chicken. Reserve 1 cup barbecue sauce in a bowl for serving; keep remaining sauce in another bowl for basting.

    2. Grill chicken, turning often, until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes (if browning too quickly, move to cooler part of grill). During final 5 minutes of cooking, baste chicken with barbecue sauce. Serve chicken with reserved sauce.

    Cook's Note
    To set up a grill with different levels of heat, place two-thirds of the hot coals on one side and one third on the other (the cooler part). For a gas grill, lower heat on one side.

I wasn't fussy about crusts. I just loved the sticky pairing of creamy peanut butter with syrupy golden sweetness drizzled from a honey bear in diagonals across the soft white bread.
