Prepare a glass dish large enough to hold the chicken pieces.

Place the washed and dried chicken pieces in the glass dish.
Rub the pieces all over with oil.
Then rub the seasonings all over the chicken pieces to coat well.

To make glaze, combine butter, sugar, dark rum and pineapple juice in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 8-10 minutes; remove from heat, and set aside until ready to grill.
After 3 hours, prepare the grill to high heat.
Arrange the chicken pieces on the grill.
Brush with glaze, turning the chicken until brown and cooked.
When serving, drizzle with any remaining sauce.
Delicious!
