    It's more of a technique than it is a recipe. I've done several wing cooks using this approach.

    I usually like to leave them on sheet pan with a grid and let them dry out for about 12-24 hours. Then I'll add 1 part corn starch in a plastic bag, then add 3 to 4 parts of my favorite rub. Shake it up and apply it to my wings.

    This adds almost a super light breading and helps crisp them up. I cook them at 375-400 raised direct.
