Instructions

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Place the chicken thighs on the grill and cook for 5–6 minutes on one side.
Flip the chicken and brush the top with barbecue sauce. Grill for another 5–6 minutes.
Flip again, brush the other side with more BBQ sauce, and cook for 2–3 more minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Serve with extra BBQ sauce if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the seasoning mix for 30 minutes before grilling.
Great with coleslaw, corn on the cob, or a side salad.

You can use bone-in thighs, just increase the cooking time accordingly.
