HONOLULU, July 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, just in time for the Fourth of July, Joe Davidson, world championship barbequer, released his first in a summer-long series of weekly BBQ tips. This week's tip features Lau Pele Chicken.

"When your typical barbequed chicken hits the table, it's burned and tastes like you're eating a hunk of the charcoal you cooked it on. With the Fourth of July coming, I wanted to help backyard chefs cook up a juicy, flavorful barbequed chicken. My Lau Pele Chicken explodes with flavor like fireworks in your mouth. It's got an even heat with a tanginess that is balanced by the honey," Davidson said. "The sauce is also great for dipping French fries in," he added.

"My Lua Pele Chicken is a new take on a recipe I've used to win barbeque championships across the country. Since I'm posting it from Hawaii, I've added a Polynesian twist. This recipe from the Aloha State is pure all-American delicious for your Fourth of July," Davidson said.

"I'm excited to roll out my summer food grilling tips and recipes. There is no better time to kick this off than the Fourth of July. All summer, my video tips will help backyard grillers cook like championship pit masters," Davidson added.

"I hope my barbeque-loving friends will share their favorite tips and recipes with me through my Facebook group, Joe Davidson- BBQ Champion. If they need a tip on how to spice up a sauce or how to grill a steak, feel free to ask me.

"I also want all my friends to know that my 'Best Beans on the Planet' recipe is featured in the July/August edition of Playboy Magazine," Davidson said. You can find the recipe at: http://www.joedavidson.com/Recipes/SaladsandSides/tabid/95/Default.aspx
