Time to plan ahead if you intend for the overnight fridge air-dry before firing 'em up on Saturday.  Enjoy this annual celebration.

    Our son is getting home from Europe today. His GF will be getting back from El Salvador. Chicken wings will be the first thing they will be asking for.
    I can't wait to oblige.
    Happy Chicken Wings Day Everyone!

    Shameless bump for wing prep purposes.

    Even with all the reminders, I still forgot the holiday. Looks like I'll be headed to the grocery store shortly. Thanks, Lou!

    Did a practice run last night. Head Country seasoning and Hot Island Lava Sauce the last 10 minutes on raised direct. Wings might be my favorite thing.

    Wife and daughter will be at a soccer team party and dinner.  I'll be on my own tonight.  Just might have to make me a mess of wings and get after some beer and music.

    Dizzy pig swamp venom 
    Caribeque calypso kick
    Caribeque Jamaican jerk

    Last two are from rub exchange from @HofstraJet

    I have no sauce in house. Any ideas for a home made one I might have ingredients for?

    I am just winging this.  :rofl:

    First time for wings on the egg. I am ashamed it has taken this long.  @lousubcap pushed me in!

    @kl8ton - that is some serious celebration right there.  Any new rubs in the mix?  Enjoy the cook and follow-on party.

    See post above.  If I take a pic as part of posting, my phone will not show the keyboard.  I have to post the pic and go back and edit the post to add pics.  I blame vanilla.

    Since I'm on the hot seat:
    Here's my favorite (heavier on the adult ketchup):

    Sriracha wing sauce  (~2 lbs of wings)

       •     For the Sauce:

       •     5 tablespoons unsalted butter

       •     1/3 cup honey, plus more for drizzling

       •     1/4 cup Sriracha (Asian chile sauce)

       •     1 tablespoon soy sauce

       •     2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

    And number 2 in the rotation:

    2 lbs chicken wings (separated and tips removed)

    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

    2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard

    3 tablespoons honey

    2 teaspoons cider vinegar

    salt and pepper

    2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce- or to taste.

    Otherwise-just go with the dry rub and enjoy.

    @ElkhornHusker and @Carolina Q - Besides the straight up flavor/taste I find the draw being the wide-range of rubs and sauces you can use to create different profiles.  I have around a dozen different recipes in my ready service locker for wings.  Some only get cycled once every year or so but all are a great eating eggsperience.  Just an opinion-

    The Wolf simmer function is so awesome. 

    Making some sauce using @lousubcap recipe as a guide.  I measure nothing.  I have nothing hot in the house either. 


    What temp do you take wings to?  Internal temp.

    I have never measured wing temp-figure around 45-60 minutes and trust the eye-ball.  If you have a thermapen ( I do) then I would check something where the wing meat surrounds the thermo and look for 180*F+ but there is no personal history behind that recommendation.   
    You have got this-way to enjoy the day!

    Nola, I have always had great luck with those Sanderson Farm wings. At our Piggly Wiggly you can buy them in 10 pound bags.

    Tried the pork rind method out. 

    3lbs of wings, thawed and refrigerated to dry out. Dusted with an all purpose rub and meat church. Then coated in the grinded pork rinds. 350 dome for 30 mins a side, indirect. Tossed in Buffalo sauce, with homemade blue cheese/celery-carrots. They were awesome

    A shot in the the BGE.

    And finally a holiday banquet (heavy on the Sriracha and a habanero paste):

    Thanks to all for participating.  A great event. 
    Edit:  I realize @DMW will be here Sunday and those west and beyond are definitely encouraged to post up regardless of the time and zone.  Above all, have fun!
