Pin ItArticle EditDiscussHot wings make the perfect appetizer or snack for a casual summer barbecue. Every wing aficionado has his or her own favorite hot sauce recipe, but individuals who are new to the world of barbecued hot wings should consider using a basic recipe that relies on a commercial hot sauce. Marinating the wings beforehand allows the flavors to penetrate into the meat, and grilling them over indirect heat prevents the meat from drying out.

Edit Ingredients

Servings - Makes 6 to 8 servings

12 whole chicken wings8 oz, 226g bottle Italian salad dressing3/4 cup hot sauce1/2 tsp cayenne pepper2 tbsp butter, melted[1]

Edit Steps1Use poultry shears or a chef's knife to cut off the wing tips. Discard or freeze for later use.

2Separate the drumettes from the flats using the shears. Keep both pieces for use later.

3Combine the salad dressing, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Use a spoon or whisk to thoroughly blend the ingredients together.

4Remove 1/2 cup of the marinade for basting. Place it in a small, covered bowl and refrigerate.

5Pour the remaining marinade into a large re-sealable plastic bag. Check the seal on the bag to verify that it closes.

6Add the chicken to the bag. Reseal the bag and turn the chicken to coat it.

7Allow the chicken to marinate overnight. Double-check to make sure that the bag is sealed before placing it into the refrigerator.

8Remove the chicken from the bag after it finishes marinating. Discard the marinade.

9Heat the grill to medium heat. Set the fire to one side of the grill while leaving a portion of the grill empty.

If using a propane grill, turn on half the burners.If using a charcoal grill, pile the briquettes on one side of the grill.10Place the wings skin-side down on the non-lit side of the grill. This will cook them using indirect heat.

11Cover the grill. Cook the wings for 30 minutes, turning occasionally.

12Add butter to the reserved sauce. Mix the two together in a small bowl using a spoon or whisk.

13Uncover the grill and baste the wings using a basting brush.

14Flip the wings over. Baste this side, as well.

15Grill uncovered for an additional 10 to 20 minutes, or until juices run clear. Baste and turn several times throughout the cooking process.

16Place the cooked wings in a large bowl. Cover with any remaining sauce and toss to coat.

17Set the wings out on a platter. Serve.

18Finished.

Edit TipsIf you have a favorite homemade hot sauce, try using it instead of the suggested sauce described above or you could buy a brand named Tabasco sauce.For a quicker version, skip the marinating and simply baste the wings in your favorite commercial hot sauce. Grill over indirect heat following the same basic instructions.For a crispier hot wing, apply a dry rub to the wings before grilling. Use a pre-made "spicy" blend or create your own with spices of your choosing, such as garlic powder, cayenne, black pepper, paprika, and salt. Apply a hot sauce after removing the wings from the grill.Consider saving and freezing the unneeded wing tips to make chicken stock.
