oops. I just misread the whole thing. Thought you were trying to put the sauce under the skin. Can't see why the rub wouldn't work under the skin.
Edited to remove ridiculous advice.

In the recipe it is an uncooked sauce so I am wondering how it would stand up to being cooked. Especially with the honey I would be concerned that you might end up with something burned. It would certainly be some distance from what was intended.
