I use a lot of products from Stubb’s, from sauces to marinades. I’ve been very happy with them all. That’s why I decided to use some of Stubb’s chicken rub on a whole chicken and drop it into my (awesome) cooker, the Char-Broil Big Easy.
The Big Easy cooked the bird in 15 minutes per pound. The Stubb’s seasoning added a little sweetness. It also added a mild mustard flavor. I’ve rubbed beef in mustard before but never added mustard flavor to chicken. It was fantastic!
Try It As Beer Can Chicken
I did make my chicken a beer can chicken by adding a bit more Stubb’s chicken rub to a can of beer that I then inserted into the chicken. You can skip that part if you wish, or use an empty soda can with chicken broth added. There’s no wrong with Stubb’s chicken rub chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy because the oil-less fryer cooks chicken right every time. The skin always comes out crispy and dangerously delicious, to say nothing of how tender and moist the meat is, dark or white!
Stubb’s also makes a chicken and citrus marinade that is also great on chicken cooked in the Big Easy.
It’s always a good idea to keep a few spare grease trays on hand for your Char-Broil Big Easy.
