Honey-Garlic Chicken Wings

Recipe from Weber’s Way to Grill™ by Jamie Purviance

Serves: 4 to 6 as an appetizer
Prep time: 20 minutes
Marinating time: up to 4 hours

Way to grill: direct and indirect medium heat (350° to 450°F)
Grilling time: 19 to 25 minutes
Special equipment: 12 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes

Marinade
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 pounds chicken wings
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon Tabasco® sauce

1. In a large bowl combine 3 tablespoons of the lemon juice, the garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the wings and turn to coat them evenly. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

2. In a small bowl combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, the honey, and hot sauce.

3. Prepare the grill for direct and indirect cooking over medium heat.

4. Thread each wing on a bamboo skewer, being sure to skewer each portion of the wing all the way up into the cartilage in the wing tip and then spreading it out as if it were “in flight.”

5. Brush the cooking grates clean. Brown the wings over direct medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes, turning once. Then move the wings over indirect medium heat and cook until the meat is no longer pink at the bone, 15 to 20 minutes, basting with the honey mixture once or twice during the last 10 minutes of grilling time. Keep the lid closed as much as possible during grilling. Remove the wings from the grill, brush once more with the glaze, and serve warm.
