Take chicken out of the freezer and cut it into parts.

Season chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika.

Prepare barbecue sauce by combining soy sauce, American style mustard, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, paprika, cayenne, and hot sauce in a saucepan.

Cook the barbecue sauce on the stove for about 20 minutes, covering it to prevent splattering.

Place chicken skin side down on the grill over low to medium heat.

Cook chicken slowly to render the fat and crisp the skin, about 30-40 minutes, checking for doneness.

When chicken is nearly done, coat it with barbecue sauce about halfway, avoiding slathering it completely to prevent sogginess.

Finish cooking until the chicken is charred and cooked through.
