Homemade Rub for Chicken – Summertime Barbecue Recipe

Sometime in the near future I’m going to share a recipe with you – Chicken in a Can.  Yep, the infamous recipe on how to cook the moistest, delicious chicken on the grill for this summer featuring a beer can!  This rub is the secret to that must-have chicken skin you will have when you make the Chicken-In-A-Can.   This is really easy to make and use, but it can get a little messy when applying it to the chicken, however the end result is well worth it.

• 1 t. salt
• 1 t. pepper
• 1 T. white sugar

Also, have the following tools on hand:

• Small mixing bowl with lid or jar.

Step 1: Get Your Ingredients Together
