Ingredients

For the firecracker sauce:


Instructions

Place the thighs in a zip top bag or small Briner Bucket. Mix the Sweetwater Spice Tres Chiles Fajita Bath Brine with water according to the guidelines on the bottle. Place the brine mixture in the bag/bucket with the chicken. Brine the thighs in the refrigerator for one hour.

Preheat your Kamado Joe Classic Joe to about 400°F, set up for indirect grilling.

Remove the thighs from the brine and place on a cutting board. Remove excess moisture on the surface of the thighs with a paper towel. Season with Oakridge BBQ Dominator Sweet Rib Rub. Grill until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the grill. Shred the meat by hand, or using forks.

Whisk together the ingredients for the firecracker sauce. Warm in a saucepan to dissolve the sugar. Add the shredded chicken to the pan to warm and coat.

Split the rolls in half, like a burger bun. Spread the bottom buns with cream cheese. Top with the diced cooked bacon, then the chicken, then the top bun.

Chile marinated chicken adds a touch of heat. The grill adds a touch of char!

To the base of sweet Hawaiian rolls we add cream cheese and crumbled bacon. Nothing wrong with that!
