BBQ Chicken Bites
The best crowd-pleasing chicken bites wrapped in crisp-tender bacon and smothered in a smoky-sweet BBQ sauce!
BBQ sauce. Bacon. Brown Sugar. And chicken.
These four main ingredients come together to create the most irresistible appetizer of all time. Or dinner option for some.
And with the help of KC Masterpiece® BBQ Sauce Mix and Dry Rubs, you can easily customize your meal to taste just how you like it – simply customize your BBQ sauce with water, juice, soda, beer or bourbon! Um, the choice is always bourbon though, right?
You can also use any of the three available flavors – Original, Sweet Honey, and Spicy Habanero. You can’t go wrong with any option. I promise.
KC Masterpiece® BBQ Sauce Mix and Dry Rubs is available at Walmart and can be found in the condiment aisle, near the other KC Masterpiece BBQ sauces.

I live in New Zealand and obviously the rub is an American product. What can I use to make my own rub for this particular recipe? Many thanks.
You can substitute barbecue sauce.
I’m positive that my family would go crazy for these little chicken bites!
This week I`ll host garden party, first for the year and I think that this recipe will go in the menu 🙂
