Jalamango wings- advice needed!

Philly35 · July 2014

Ive done @Dyal_SC‌ jalamango wings a couple times now and have been asked to do them for this weekend. I have heard mesquite is good on wings but I always hear bad things about mesquite, so I've never used it. I am a fan of hickory but up until now, I always use fruitwood on chicken. What are your thoughts on using mesquite+chicken? Also, the sauce is always a bit runny, so I'm going to try reducing it down to thicken it up. TIA!

I do all the time. Never had a complaint.

@travisstrick‌ Is it pretty strong smoke? Pretty easy to over do it?

I hear that you can but not for me. I guess it's personal taste but it's really not that strong on a 1 hr cook

The few times I used mesquite with chicken I liked it but my wife and kids commented that it had too strong of a smoky flavor.
I use pecan for almost all my cooks and we love it.

As a personal preference, I don't add any wood smoke to the jalamango lime wings. I'd imagine the mesquite working just fine though. Glad y'all like them!

You talking about your Central Market Mesquite lump?

Just found the recipe and saved it... can't wait to try it.

I know I may catch some grief for this but my favorite wing at buffalo wild wings are the mango habanero. Im hoping these will blow them away! I like hot and sweet (just like the little lady)!!

No. I use that almost every cook. I'm talking about the actual wood chunks.
