Because the Summer deluge of burgers, brats, and Uncle Wally lighting bottle rockets out of his teeth can eventually get tiresome, Country Cat owner Adam Sappington wants to make you a BBQ baller with this Sappy Spice Chicken recipe you should immediately add to My Thrillist: a simple, succulent bird with a super-top-secret spice rub. Or, formerly super-top-secret, once you watch the above vid and download the recipe card.

Said card'll tell you how to create a flavor bomb of fennel seed, paprika, lemon pepper, garlic powder, and Herbs de Provence (some mixes contain lavender; don't get those). Then, rub the clucker down before cooking over indirect heat until the skin gets a bacon-y crunch, while the meat on the inside stays so tender, even toothless Uncle Wally'll be able to feast.
