Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
For the seasoning:
In a small mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, smoked paprika, mustard powder, and salt until evenly mixed. Reserve half of the seasoning.
For the chicken:
Place the chicken thighs in a dutch oven. Rub the remaining brown sugar all over the chicken thighs.
Arrange the chicken thighs in an even layer. Cover the dutch oven with the lid and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and transfer the chicken thighs to a cutting board. Reserve 1/3 cup of the liquid in the pan from the chicken and discard the rest.
Preheat oven to broil.
Shred the chicken and add back into a pot with the liquid. Stir in the reserved seasoning mix and bbq sauce. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the pot back into the oven. Broil for 3-5 minutes to get the chicken a little crispy on top.
