The kid requested wings

My little cousin turned nine and requested that I cook him wings for his birthday party. He and his friends (12-15 of them) went to laser tag; which is about 5 mins from my crib. I think I may have cooked 150 party wings, most were his favorite, bbq. It was a blast.  He had his pick of several varieties.  I rubbed some with Plowboys, Tsunami Spin, Lemon pepper, and curry. They all were great.  I had the XL, JR and my weber smokey joe silver. The weber was used for SWMBO aunt, who is vegetarian. She brought her own "Chicken" so I could grill it. I "warmed" it up with a few char marks and she also asked if I could sauce it. LOL - "No problem

It was a fun cook. I was so busy i only got a few pics so you would believe it happened. Here are shots of the first load of wings: PB's rubbed and sauced with Rod Gray IPA wings on the XL and the lemon pepper wings on the jr.

    That's a serious amount of wings.  It's good to know they like your BBQ.  :)

    That looks awesome.  I love BBQ wings.  What sauce did you use?  I've been rubbing mine with Happy Holla then saucing with Bone Suckin Sauce.

    People that don't do what we do don't realize that when you do 100 wings, you are touching each of them 3-4 times over an hour- you are kicking ass non stop. I like it too but it's an ass kicker for a couple of hours straight.

    Much easier to do a butt or a brisket and kick back and drink beer while you watch the thermo.

    You're a nice cousin and a good role model to those young boys! He requested wings at age nine. In a few years he will be looking for some breasts ;)
