marinating question

I was cooking 8 lbs of wings over the weekend and decided to marinate them overnight. I did not have one bowl big enough so i decided to use two square tupperware containers. My problem was it took 5 bottles of marinate to cover all of the wings!! Is there a different way to marinate these without going broke on marinate.(maybe thin it down with something?) probably a dumb question but the wings were great and I will be making them a lot more and don't want to spend more on the marinate than the wings!! Any advice??

You can try to create your own marinade or attempt to replicate it through "reverse engineering"..Otherwise, try thinning with beer or an ingredient in the marinade(vinegar, citrus). Water can just wash out flavors. Taste prior to mixing with the chicken parts.

Ziplock baggies.

Cazzy's wing marinade is like candy when reduced.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

ziplocks squeezing it all together to get the air out. cutting the wing tips off then cutting them into drummets and wingets packs them even tighter so you use less marinade

+1000 Bigger sizes (1 gallon) for lots of wings, medium sized for small stuff. I keep the remaining marinade in the ziplock and use it for basting during the cook. Also +1 fishless for cutting off the wing tips for space/marinade and grid space while cookingLBGE, Weber OTG w/ Rotisserie, Weber Genesis S-330, Chargriller Duo, AR-15, AK-47 -
