Ingredients

1 whole chicken , jointed, or 8 bone-in chicken pieces (we used legs, breasts, thighs and wings)

1 tsp sea salt

1 tbsp smoked paprika

1 tsp garlic granules

2 tbsp runny honey

2 tbsp cider vinegar

2 tbsp light brown soft sugar

200g American mustard

Method

To make the spice rub, mix the salt, smoked paprika and garlic granules together in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces and toss well to coat. Transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 2 hrs.

To make the BBQ sauce, tip the honey, vinegar, sugar and mustard into a pan and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.

Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Pour half of the the BBQ sauce into a large bowl, add the seasoned chicken pieces and toss to coat. Spread the chicken out on a baking tray and roast for 1 hr, occasionally basting with more BBQ sauce, until the chicken is cooked through and sticky. Serve with truffled mac ‘n’ cheese, onion rings and coleslaw if you like.
