Instructions

Make Honey Chipotle Sauce

  • Rough chop a large vidalia onion.
  • In a pot over medium heat, add 2 tbsp of neutral oil and cook onions until they're translucent.
  • Then add the rest of your ingredients. Allow the sauce to simmer for 30 minutes.
    1/3 cup white vinegar, 1/3 cup water, 1 cup Ketchup, 1.5 tbsp molasses, 3.5 oz chipotle in adobo sauce, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1/3 cup Creamed Honey or Regular Honey, 1 tsp Onion Powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • After 30 minutes strain the onions and chipotles.
  • Store in a mason jar or similar container.

Cut and Prepare Wings for the Grill

  • Take wings out of packaging and separate into wingettes and drumettes.
  • Take a 1/2 cup of corn starch and add to a large mixing bowl. Put wings into bowl and toss in corn starch ensuring all parts are completely covered.
    Add more corn starch as needed.

Put Wings on the Grill

  • Get your grill to 425F.
  • Once at temperature put wings on the grill - avoiding hot zones.
  • Allow to grill for 20 minutes.
    After 20 minutes, check to see if the wings are browning on the underside. If they're not completely "crispy looking" on the underside, allow to grill for 5 more minutes.
  • Once the underside is crisped, flip over to the other side and allow to grill for 15 more minutes.
  • Take the wings off the grill when they're crispy looking - the internal should be at around 190-200F.

Re-heat Sauce and then Sauce the Wings

  • Take 1 cup of your sauce and reheat.
  • Then toss wings in the sauce.
