Prep Time4 minutes
Cook Time20 minutes
Total Time54 minutes
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds chicken party wings
  • 3.5 teaspoons salt
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce such as Frank's
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Place the 4 pounds of chicken party wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle with 3 ½ teaspoons salt and 1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup buffalo sauce, ¾ cup honey, ¼ cup lightly packed brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce until smooth.
  • Reserve 1 cup of the sauce in a separate container for basting, then pour the remaining sauce over the wings and toss until they are fully coated.
  • Cover the bowl and let the wings marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Arrange the marinated wings on the grill and cook for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally. Each time you turn them, baste with the reserved cup of sauce.
  • Grill until the wings are crispy and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the wings from the grill, baste once more with the reserved sauce, and serve.

Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Medium Bowl
  • Grill
  • Tongs
  • Meat Thermometer

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure wings reach 165°F.
  • Reserve sauce for basting to avoid cross-contamination.
  • Marinating at room temperature for 30 minutes speeds flavor absorption.
  • Turn wings regularly for even charring.
