Name: Chili-Rubbed Chicken with Barbecue
Ingredients: Chili Rub; 3/4 c Chili powder (about 3 1/2 ounces); 3 tb Brown sugar; 2 ts Cayenne pepper; Mop; 1 c Hickory barbecue sauce; 3/4 c Ketchup; 1/3 c Orange juice; 1 tb Soy sauce; 1 ts Hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco); Everything Else; 2 3 1/2 pound chickens; quartered,; Backbones discarded; 3 c Mesquite wood chips; soaked in cold; Water 1 hour (optional)

Unction is the sweetest exhalation of the Holy Spirit. It carries the Word like dynamite, like salt, like sugar; makes the Word a soother, an accuser, a revealer, a searcher; makes the hearer a culprit or a saint, makes him weep like a child and live like a giant; opens his heart and his purse as gently, yet as strongly as the spring opens the leaves. This unction is not the gift of genius. It is not found in the hall of learning. No eloquence can woo it. No industry can win it. It is the gift of God - the signet set to His own messengers. It is heaven’s knighthood given to the chosen true and brave ones who have sought this anointed honor through many an hour of tearful, wrestling prayer. Earnestness is good and impressive; genius is gifted and great. Thought kindles and inspires, but it takes a diviner endowment, a more powerful energy than earnestness or genius or thought to break the chains of sin, to win estranged and depraved hearts to God, to repair the breaches and restore the church to her old ways of purity and power. Nothing but holy unction can do this.

NOTES :  Dry-rubbed before grilling, the delicious bird is then generously
drizzled with a zesty sauce at the table-twice the firepower for twice the=
fun.
