Crispy Grilled Wings Recipes

CRISPY GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Season the wings. Place chicken wings in a large mixing bowl. Toss wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then set aside. If using a spice seasoning or dry rub, add olive oil to wings, but omit salt and pepper.
• Cook the wings. Preheat grill to 450 F. Place wings directly on grill and cook for 20-30 minutes (this really depends on the size/thickness of the wings) over direct heat, turning every ~5-10 minutes or so, until an internal temperature of 165F is reached. Serve immediately, with sauces, if using.

CRISPY GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to hot. All the burners. Close the cover to allow to heat up. Rinse and pat dry the wings.
• Drizzle the wings with olive oil and coat evenly on all sides.
• Season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Evenly sprinkle the wings with dry rub or seasoning, if using (adjust salt as needed)
• Turn off center two burners (or 1, depending on grill). Leave outside burners set to hot. Place wings on the hot grill over center burners (that should be off) and/or on top shelf rack. Note the wings on the top rack will cook faster. Close the grill.
• At no time should the wings ever be over direct heat/flame. We are indirect cooking them.
• Check the wings at 15 minutes, just to be sure there are no wings too close to the direct flame, you can move around as needed if some get more heat, but don't flip yet. At this point the wings should still look somewhat pale, but not raw.
• Check again at 30 minutes. At this point the top of the wings should have a nice, very light brown color. Flip all the wings over, the bottoms should be golden brown. Any wing that you can't pick up (stuck to the grill still) these may need another 5 minutes or so.
• Check the wings at 45 minutes. Just to be sure nothing is getting too much heat. Swap any around as needed, if some are getting too much.
• At 1 hour, have a medium sized bowl ready. Remove the wings in groups of 4-8. Place into the bowl and drizzle with a small amount of olive oil. Add any seasoning or sauces. Shake well to coat.
• Place the coated wings on the top rack. If your grill doesn't have a top rack, place back in the center of the grill where the burners are off. Continue with remaining wings until all are sauced/seasoned and added back to the grill.
• If all the wings are on the top rack turn on all burners to high. (If not, leave offthe burners where the wings are) close the cover and in increments of 3-5 minutes, check the wings you are cooking until desired crispness is achieved. Remove from the grill, season as needed and serve.

CRISPY GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• This method uses 2 zone cooking. The wings will be cooked in indirect heat at first and then will move to the direct heat side of the grill to finish off and get crispy.
• Prepare Your Chicken Wings: Dry off your wings fully with a paper towel and remove the wing flap if necessary.
• Prepare Your Dry Rub and Toss With Chicken Wings: In a large bowl, whisk your dry rub together along with the baking powder until it is evenly combined. Toss your wings into the bowl and coat them evenly with dry rub. This will vary by dry rub, but for every 1.5 pounds of wings, use 2 tbsp dry rub and 2 tsp baking powder.
• Marinate: Let the wings marinate in the dry rub mixture UNCOVERED in the fridge for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
• Preheat Your Grill: When you're ready to grill your wings, turn on one side of the grill and preheat it until the temperature stays at 400 degrees. While you're waiting for the grill to preheat, remove the wings from the fridge and allow them to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Grill Over Indirect Heat: Place your wings on the indirect heat side for 10 minutes making sure the grill temperature stays at 400. After the first 10 minutes, flip and cook for another 10 minutes.
• Grill Over Direct Heat: Place wings over direct heat for 10 minutes flipping halfway through. This will ensure that the chicken wings get nice and crispy and finish cooking through. Remove from heat and eat as is or toss in buffalo sauce or BBQ sauce before serving.
