Pro Tips
- Dry wings = crispy wings. Pat with paper towel thoroughly.
- A light dusting of baking powder with the seasoning helps crisp the skin.
- Don't sauce too early — sugar burns quickly on the BBQ.
- Direct heat the whole time for wings — they're small enough.
Resting Time
Rest for 2–3 minutes after removing from the BBQ. This allows juices to redistribute for a juicier result.
