Question for @RRP (and otehr wing enthusiasts) re: GRW

Ron,


I am making another batch of these awesome wings this weekend for a football tailgate.  I should get them out of the salt bath and into the marinade tonight after work.  My plan is to smoke them Friday night and then refrigerate them until we head to the tailgate Saturday morning.  I will have access to a grill at the tailgate, so my thought was to just heat them back up in batches on the grill and serve.  Do you think that is the best way to handle re-heating (any suggestion for grill temp and time)?  I just don't have a mobile egg so thought this would work instead.  Also, since I will be grilling the wings on Saturday, do you think I should pull them any earlier from the egg to avoid over-cooking them?


Any insight would be greatly appreciated.  Love these wings.

    Yes they should be fine, but they will not be as good as fresh, hot off the grill. I would finish them on Friday though and not leave partially uncooked. Then on Sat reheat them INDIRECT or at least in a foil covered pan on a low temperature. That should warm them without drying them out. Good Luck and enjoy your efforts as well as the football game!

    I forgot to mention that IMO the 54 hour soak using the Georgia Red Wing recipe then it permeates the chicken clear to the bone so I don't feel you need to fear drying the wings out during the reheat.  That's unlike other recipes which others here may chime in and advise you about.

    @RRP, thanks for the feedback.  With your 2nd post, you indicated that you don't think I need to worry about drying out, so does that mean you think grilling them directly is ok...or do you still think I need to put them in the covered pan at low temp to re-heat?  Thanks again.

    Sorry I should have just edited my one post so it wouldn't be confusing - no I still say you should warm them in a covered pan at a low temp. My second post was just an after thought that GRW shouldn't dry out as much as rewarming non-GRW.
