This was really good and so easy! My kids won't eat anything spicy so I left out the cayenne.

This recipe is simply fantastic. I have made this chicken three times, and it was perfect every time! It is unbelieveably juicy, even when grilled. The mix of sweet and spicy for the rub are perfect. I get rave reviews every time I make this dish for family or company.
