SPICY BBQ CHICKEN CLUB SANDWICH
Categories Sandwich Chicken Quick & Easy Tailgating Healthy
Yield 4 Sandwiches
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- The night before the tailgate, cover each chicken breast loosely with plastic wrap and pound each one to a thickness of about 3/8-inch. Season both sides of each breast generously with the BBQ dry rub, then place them in a covered container in the refrigerator overnight. The next day, let the breasts come back to room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. Over a grill set on medium-high heat, grill the bacon strips on both sides to a crisp doneness. Remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Grill the chicken breasts until nicely browned on the first side, about 3 minutes. Turn the breasts over and brush the top side with some BBQ sauce. After cooking for 2 more minutes, place a slice of cheese on top of each breast. When the cheese begins to melt, remove the breasts from the grill to a plate and loosely cover them with foil to stay warm. Meanwhile, brush each onion slice with oil and place them on the grill. Cook for about 3 minutes, then flip the onion slices over and grill until lightly charred. Remove the onions from the grill to a plate. Brush one side of each slice of bread with the melted butter and place them buttered-side-down on the grill. Cook the bread for about 30 seconds, then flip over and grill for another 30 seconds. Remove the bread to a platter. Sprinkle each slice of tomato with salt and pepper, to taste. To assemble, place a grilled chicken breast on each of 4 slices of bread with the buttered side facing up. Place 2 slices of bacon over each breast. On top of the bacon, place a grilled onion slice, then a seasoned tomato slice and then a lettuce leaf. Finally, brush the other 4 bread slices on the buttered side with some BBQ sauce and place them sauce-side-down on top of the sandwiches. Serve immediately.
BBQ CHICKEN SANDWICH - WACO FAMILY FAVORITE
This is a family favorite and in frequent rotation during the summertime in our household (Gotta love it anytime DH grills up dinner). Although normally we use sprouts ( Broccosprouts whenever we can find them), the kiddos are more inclined to sub lettuce and omit the tomatoes. Sometimes an avocado can garnish, normally that is...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat grill.
- 2. Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts on the grill; cook until done.
- 3. While chicken grills, fry bacon in a pan to desired crispness; drain and set aside.
- 4. Baste chicken with BBQ sauce, turning during basting.

- 6. Lightly toast buns, if desired, then add bbq sauce, chicken, bacon, onion tomato and sprouts.

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the grill.
- For a smoky flavor, soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before adding them to the grill.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken in a smoker or even in your oven on a baking sheet at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through.
- For a healthier version of the sandwich, use whole-wheat buns and top with grilled vegetables instead of fried onion rings.
- To make the sandwich even more flavorful, try using a flavored mayonnaise or a barbecue sauce that you like.
