Adjust-a-heat Wings

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons garlic salt
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons italian seasoning
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup olive oil (give or take)
• 3 -4 lbs chicken wings (we prefer drumettes)

Recipe

• 1 combine dry ingredients in a plastic bag, shake to mix.
• 2 be sure to break-up chunks of brown sugar.
• 3 if using whole wings cut them into three pieces and reserve tips for stock.
• 4 coat chicken pieces with oil, use enough to just coat the chicken.
• 5 sprinkle the dry rub over the chicken and refrigerate for 1 hour (minimum).
• 6 now, here comes the adjustable part, the longer you keep the spice on the wings, the hotter they get.
• 7 i've even frozen the wings with the rub on, apparently the cold temps don't stop the process because those wings were almost too hot to eat!
• 8 using the direct method, grill the wings over a charcoal or gas grill (turning often) until done, 15 minutes or so.
• 9 can be done under a broiler as well without too much sacrifice in flavor, but more to clean up.
