Rubs, Sauces, or Marinades?
Which is best for cold weather grilling? Is a rub, sauce or marinade the best way to grill? This comes down to personal preference but I tend to like a savory rub during the winter time. Some of my favorite rubs, sauces and marinades are from Serious Foodie. They have many ethnic flavored spices, rubs and sauces perfect for winter grilling!

Gluten Free Winter BBQ Grilled Chicken and Vegetables
Ingredients
- 4 whole chicken breasts
- barbeque spice rub
- 3 cups vegetables
- ½ cup pomegranate arils
- ¼ cup feta cheese
Instructions
- Preheat grill to desired heat. (We do medium-low to medium). Rub chicken with the spice rub. Place chicken on grill and cook for several minutes on one side. Flip chicken and cook on the other side until chicken is no longer pink in the center and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- While the chicken is cooking, cook the vegetables in a grill pan or straight on the grill. Cook until vegetables are tender, then remove. Brush vegetables with oil prior to grilling.
- Once chicken and vegetables are cooked, place them on a plate then sprinkle pomegranate arils and feta cheese on top.
