Hot wings on the grill

[Blackshirt BBQ]

I usually marinate wings in Italian dressing for an hour or so, then grill them, and flash fry in corn oil before tossing in store bought wing sauce. Does anyone have a better recipe for cooking the wings and a homemade wing sauce??

check the blasphemy buffalo wing recipe in the tested recipe section. id call that my find of the year.

This wing sauce is sufficiently popular that when I say I'm thinking of trying something different, a bunch of whining ensues. Quantities are approximate, also not critical (I just eyeball it). I mostly make 18-24 wings at a time, cooked either on the grill or under the broiler. Then the sauce. Combine all this is a sauce pan, throw in the wings, and reduce over high heat. Keep the wings moving, and stop when the sauce thicken up to your liking, and they are well-coated.

1/2 cup Franks Hot Sauce
1/2 stick of butter
2-3 Tbsp brown sugar
2-3 Tbsp salad-grade Balsamic (I mostly use Kirkland)
3-4 Tbsp hotter hot sauce (e.g. Tabasco, Sriracha), to taste

My secret ingredient is Shark Sriracha for the hotter hot sauce. Not so common in these parts. I get mine from https://importfood.com . A site worth knowing about for anyone who likes to cook.

Gonna have to try that. I usually like wings with a dry rub, but that sounds delicious.

Should have mentioned that, if you don't salt the wings, be sure to salt the sauce.

Have you checked out the Vortex? I use one in my Weber 22 and makes amazing, crispy wings. Google and check out. Temp runs 550-600 and takes about 45 minutes or so. Only way I do wings.

45 minutes at 600 degrees? Can't get crispier than that ;-)
Vortex looks like a good accessory. First mention I've seen of it.

Blackshirt BBQ, as scooter53 Says the Vortex Accessory Works Well for Chicken Legs and Parts‼️ I Can't afford Wings❓
For a Store Bought Rub I Normally Use Jack Daniels Old # 7 Chicken Rub after Dry Brining Over Night in the Refrigerator With Kosher Salt, Tones Restaurant Grind Black Pepper, Onion Powder, and Garlic Powder‼️

+1 for the Vortex for wings and legs. I think it’s better than the SnS for these.

Garlic lemon pepper
Siracha Teriyaki (my favorite)
Buffalo
Kansas City BBQ
Smokey Chipotle

I like to hit the wings with Hardcore Carnivore Red, no sauce. I do them on the indirect side of the grill at 325 for 25-30 minutes, take them off and crank the fire, then crisp them for a minute or two on each side.
