A quick and easy appetizer, these bacon wrapped chicken chunks lasted about 5 minutes after they came off the grill. With the amount of coals that I used there was plenty of charcoal left for the main course - BURGERS!
The Weber Go Anywhere grill is a little work-horse. Even in the snow it smoked these little chicken nuggets at ease. I bank lump charcoal on one side, threw some hickory chips on the top and lit about 20 briquettes to do a slow cook. I was kind of a psuedo-snake method.
The rub recipe is just enough to do 2 chicken breasts, double it if you want to do a larger batch.
The Rub
1/2 t Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
1/2 t Kosher Salt
1/2 t Cumin
1/8 t White Pepper
1/2 t Ancho Chili Powder
1/4 t Granulated Garlic
1/4 t Granulated Onion
1 T Turbinado Sugar
I have never actually been to a Shake Shack but I was reading through their menu online and figured I would give this hot dog recipe a shot. They cook their dogs on a flat top so thats why I used a cast iron pan.
Their cheese sauce is very different but I figured a highly process cheddar would be close enough. The ale marinate shallots were completely awesome on this dog. I would say try them first without the mustard. I really hope you give this one a try!
