The smoky flavor pairs perfectly with the spices in the Tex-Mex blend of seasonings, and the chicken wings are grilled to perfection.

ingredients

2 1/2 pounds precut chicken wings, or whole wings cut into 2 pieces at joint, tips discarded
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon hot red pepper sauce
1 teaspoon mesquite-flavored liquid smoke

directions

Wash wings and pat dry.

Prepare medium-hot charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium high. Grill wings over medium-high heat, turning often, until skin begins to get crispy, about 15 minutes. In medium bowl, mix ingredients together and baste wings, turning often. (Basting earlier will cause wings to burn because of the high sugar content in the sauce).

Continue grilling, basting often, until wings are cooked through and slightly charred but not burned, about another 10 minutes.

  1. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    Absolutely delicious. I served it at a family gathering and everyone, including children all the way to grandma, LOVED it! A great success. Will use this recipe over and over.

  2. Healthy eater REVIEW:

    I usually only eat what's good for you and nourishing, but this recipe convinced me that it's worth eating wings that good! The only change I made is omitting the honey. It was sweet enough without it and super delicious.
