Wings

Recently I cooked chicken wings elevated on bricks placed on the grate level so they were quite high and close to the dome. While I loved the final product I wasn't happy with the amount I was able to cook elevated on a small grill. The large BGE elevating the grill to such an extent limited the space available.

Tonight I cooked wings elevated to grate level. I wanted to identify how many wings I could cook at this level at a single time. I was able to fit 18 wings on the grill at the level of the grate. At times I had to rotate and flip frequently as I experienced multiple flare ups at 350 degrees. Overall I was happy with the end product, although some of the rub burned. I believe I can do better!  I rubbed one third of the wings with dizzy dust, another third with cosmic cow, and the final third with a Piri-Piri rub I picked up at the farmers market. My next experiment will likely be a wet rub of olive oil, lemon,  fresh garlic, and various herbs and spices.
