I'm not sure how I feel about this. I mean, just because two different things taste great individually doesn't mean they'll taste even better together. BBQ Chicken? Good stuff. Sushi? You know how I feel about that.
BBQ Chicken Sushi? Um. That is some Asian Fusion that I just can't imagine.
However, according to bb of food blog Wine Guy World, who put the two together in search of something new, fast, and not too heavy, "the results are delicious." The sushi is simply a piece of toasted nori wrapped around steamed white rice that's been splashed with rice vinegar and BBQ chicken that's been marinated in sweetened soy sauce. The full recipe is over on Wine Guy World's blog.

Wow he created Musubi... wait Hawaiians have been grabbing that at 7-eleven for years. Granted it is usually made with Spam but you can get it with fried or grilled Teri-Chicken, hot-dogs, and even bacon and eggs. Peep the wiki for more info:

I used to have a Musubi almost every day for lunch in college.

sounds pretty feasible to me, being from texas. a sushi chain here has this:
"Texas Roll: Roast Beef, Cream Cheese, Avocado, Asparagus with a crunchy breaded finish."

This all seems like a moral sin to me.

Yeah, I like the musubi style. I think plain rice would match better than sushi rice.

Alli, try this one; "Louisiana Roll": nori wrapping sushi rice with advocado and fried crawfish finished with a spicy mayo.
Not exactly sushi but it is good.
BBQ Chicken 'sushi'? Oh yeah, I'd eat it; sounds good.

This is really nothing new to Asian cuisine. It's actually pretty standard.

This is not too far from Korean "gim bap"--Korean bbq beef, along with daikon, carrot, cucumber and omelet, rolled with rice in nori.
