Ingredients
Marinade:
- Apple Cider Vinegar
Seasoning:
- Kosher Salt
- Fresh chopped Garlic
- Onion Powder
- Cumin
- Smoked Paprika
Buffalo Wing Sauce:
- 3 parts - Vinegar based Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce such as Bulliard's or Frank's RedHot Avoid Tabasco as a main wing sauce base, but it can be used for additional flavor
- 2 parts - Butter or margarine.
- Pinch garlic powder
Instructions
- Marinade wings in apple cider vinegar and seasoning for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours
- Sear wings over direct high flame 4-5 min. each side (gas or charcoal)
- Move all wings to one side under low flame, keep other burners stepped (middle) medium heat (left) high heat to maintain temp. Or a 2 zone charcoal fire keeping wings over low zone. Rotate wings for equal direct grill exposure. (Slow drip of marinade creates small controlled flare-ups to give another layer of flavor!)
- With wings almost completely cooked, place wings over high heat, flipping once to bring temperature up and to insure proper "BBQ Glow"
- Mop with a little seasoning (Chef's choice) 3-1 apple juice - cider vinegar mixture. A dash of beer never hurts as it always seems handy.
- Toss with Buffalo Wing Sauce and enjoy!
