• cayenne pepper
• garlic powder
• pepper
• salt
• paprika

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat grill to medium-high.
2. 2 Whisk all the ingredients for the Memphis-style rub in a small bowl and set aside.
3. 3 Place 2 to 3 chicken thighs on a large 12x18-inch piece of Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil. Generously sprinkle Memphis-style rub on all sides of the chicken, gently pressing it down.

5. 5 Place foil-wrapped chicken thighs onto the grill.
6. 6 Cover the grill and grill the chicken thighs for 15 to 20 minutes (longer or shorter depending on thickness of chicken) until tender and juices run clear or meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. After the chicken is cooked through, carefully place the foil packet on a large plate. Carefully open foil with a pair of tongs and then, if desired, place chicken thighs directly onto grill to get nice grill marks and some char.
