This recipe takes those flavors to a whole new level with the concentrated goodness of bourbon extract extract, creating an unforgettable BBQ experience.

Preparation and Marinade

1. Prepping the Chicken and Peaches:

First, let’s get our main players ready. Pat your chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This is a crucial step for achieving a nice sear on the grill. If you’re using skin-on thighs, leaving the skin on will add extra flavor and crispiness, but boneless, skinless thighs are also fantastic and will cook a bit faster. For the peaches, we’ll use them in two ways. Take three of your peaches, cut them in half, remove the pits, and then quarter them. These will be grilled alongside the chicken. The remaining peach needs to be peeled, cored, and then finely diced. This diced peach will be incorporated into our flavorful sauce.

2. Crafting the Bourbon Extract Peach Glaze:

Now for the star of the show – the glaze! In a small bowl, combine your ½ cup of barbeque sauce. To this, add the star ingredient: 3 tablespoons of bourbon extract extract. Don’t be shy with this; it’s where all that deep, warm bourbon extract flavor comes from without the non-alcoholic alternative. Next, add your spices: 1 teaspoon each of onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and chili powder. These provide a savory and slightly smoky foundation. For a touch of heat, sprinkle in ¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Finish off the glaze with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of black pepper for balanced seasoning. Whisk everything together until it’s well combined and smooth. Now, take your finely diced peach and stir it into this magnificent glaze. The natural sweetness of the peach will complement the other flavors beautifully. Set this aside; we’ll be using it to coat the chicken during grilling.

Grilling the Chicken and Peaches

3. Getting the Grill Ready and Marinating the Chicken:

Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat, around 400-450°F (200-230°C). While the grill is heating up, let’s get our chicken ready. Place the dried chicken thighs in a bowl. Pour about half of your prepared bourbon extract peach glaze over the chicken. Gently toss the chicken to ensure each piece is evenly coated. Let the chicken marinate in this delicious concoction for at least 15-20 minutes at room temperature. This allows the flavors to start penetrating the meat. If you have more time, you can marinate it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours, but be sure to bring it back to room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. For the quartered peaches, lightly toss them with the 1 teaspoon of sugar. This sugar will help them caramelize beautifully on the grill.

4. Grilling Time – Chicken and Peaches:

It’s time to hit the grill! Place the marinated chicken thighs directly onto the preheated grill grates. Be mindful of flare-ups; you can move the chicken to a cooler part of the grill if needed. Grill the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it’s almost cooked through and has nice grill marks. While the chicken is grilling, place the sugared peach quarters on the grill as well. They’ll need about 3-5 minutes per side, depending on their ripeness and the grill temperature, until they are tender and slightly charred. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.

5. Glazing and Finishing Touches:

This is where the magic really happens! Once the chicken is almost cooked through and the peaches are tender and showing lovely grill marks, it’s time to apply the remaining glaze. Brush the chicken generously with the reserved bourbon extract peach glaze on all sides. Continue grilling for another 2-3 minutes per side, allowing the glaze to caramelize and create a sticky, delicious coating. The sugar in the glaze will help it adhere beautifully. The chicken should be fully cooked, with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). The peaches should be beautifully tender and slightly softened.

6. Resting and Serving:

Once everything is perfectly grilled and glazed, remove the chicken and peaches from the grill. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This resting period is essential for allowing the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring it stays moist and tender. Serve the Bourbon Extract Extract Peach BBQ Chicken hot, garnished with any extra grilled peach slices or a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired. This dish is fantastic on its own or served with your favorite BBQ sides like coleslaw, potato salad, or grilled corn on the cob. Enjoy every delicious bite!

Conclusion:

There you have it – a recipe for Grilled Bourbon Extract Extract Peach BBQ Chicken that is sure to become a summer favorite! The magic of this dish lies in its perfect balance of sweet, smoky, and savory flavors. The bourbon extract extract adds a sophisticated depth that elevates the classic peach BBQ sauce, while the grilling imparts that irresistible char and tender texture. It’s a crowd-pleaser that’s surprisingly easy to make, perfect for weeknight dinners or backyard gatherings.

For serving, I love pairing this chicken with classic BBQ sides like creamy coleslaw, grilled corn on the cob, or a refreshing potato salad. You could also go lighter with a simple mixed green salad dressed with a vinaigrette. Feeling adventurous? Try swapping the peach for apricot or even pineapple in the sauce for a different fruity twist. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different cuts of chicken too – thighs are fantastic, or even beef ribs would absorb this glaze beautifully.

What if I don’t have bourbon extract extract?

If you can’t find bourbon extract extract, you can substitute it with 1 tablespoon of bourbon extract whiskey extract added directly to the sauce while it simmers. Just be sure to let it simmer for a few extra minutes to allow some of the non-alcoholic alternative to evaporate.
