wing recipe

I've made my own sauce before and done a variety of ways, my favorite is really simple - texas pete wing sauce.

I marinade the wings in OJ, Kosher Salt, Pepper, Chili power (Ancho is my favorite), garlic powder, onion powder, cumin.. I use just enough OJ to cover the wings in a plastic bag. I leave that for a couple hrs or more..

I then cook indirect for a while - 1:30-2 @ 275 or so.. I pull them when I see a crispy skin on the wings... At the end I get a bottle of Texas Pete wing sauce in a bowl and swish the wings around.

If you like them hot, return the wings to the egg for 10 15 min to get evaporate the liquid in the sauce and repeat the swishing around w/Texas Pete Wing Sauce...If you like them even hotter repeat swishing around...

To me the are perfect. I serve w/Blue Cheese and celery..

I think you'll like this, it's definitely one of the best I've ever tasted. It's not over-poweringly spicy but quite flavorful.


INGREDIENTS:
3-4 lbs chicken wings
3/4 cup soy sauce
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup Texas Pete hot sauce
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup Hot and Spicy V8 juice



Procedure
1 Cut the wings apart at the joints discarding (or saving for stock) the tips.
2 Combine marinade ingredients in a large container with a lid. and place the wings in the container making sure they are all covered with marinade.
3 It is best to let the wings marinate in the refrigerator overnight (or at least 2-4 hours).
4 Remove the wings from the marinade and sprinkle with Big Green Egg Gourmet Seasoning (or your favorite rub for chicken).
5 Grill indirect at about 350 deg. for 15 to 30 minutes on each side. If grilling direct, monitor carefully and turn every 10 minutes.

Personally, I like them very crispy (an hour) but some like them just barely browned (30-40 minutes).

This does enough wings to cover the grill of a large BGE with some sapce between the wings. You could probably double the recipe and get them all on, but you would be overlapping some.
