BARBECUED CHICKEN WINGS



Barbecued Chicken Wings image

For an All-American cookout, be sure to put some chicken wings on the grill.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

24 whole chicken wings
3 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Pierre's Barbecue Sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide wings between 2 rimmed baking sheets. Drizzle each sheet with 4 1/2 teaspoons oil. Season each with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper; toss to combine. Bake until cooked through, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high (if you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Brush wings with barbecue sauce. Grill, turning and brushing with sauce occasionally, until heated through and marked by grill, 6 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Wings: Opt for fresh, plump wings with no signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Dry the Wings Thoroughly: Pat the wings dry with paper towels to ensure crispy skin and better adherence of seasonings.
  • Season Liberally: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A good blend of spices and herbs will elevate the flavor of your wings.
  • Let the Wings Rest: After seasoning, let the wings rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Cook at High Heat: High heat is key to achieving crispy skin and juicy meat. Aim for a temperature of 400°F (200°C) or higher.
  • Flip the Wings Regularly: Ensure even cooking by flipping the wings halfway through the cooking time.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: To ensure perfectly cooked wings, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the wing. It should read 165°F (74°C).
  • Make Your Own Sauces and Dips: Experiment with different sauces and dips to complement your wings. Homemade options often taste better and are healthier.

Conclusion:

With careful preparation, attention to detail, and a bit of experimentation, you can create mouthwatering BBQ chicken wings that will be the star of any gathering. Whether you prefer dry rubs, spicy sauces, or tangy glazes, the possibilities are endless. So, gather your ingredients, fire up the grill or oven, and embark on a culinary journey that will leave your taste buds dancing. Happy grilling and enjoy your delicious homemade BBQ chicken wings!
