Wing Stop's Hickory Smoked BBQ

Ingredients:

1 cup Heinz Ketchup
½ cup Unsulphured Molasses (Grandma's or Brer Rabbit brands)
2 tablespoons Liquid Hickory Smoke (other wood flavors will change the taste)
1 tablespoons Chipotle Sauce (Bufalo or Harriet's Brands)
½ teaspoon ground Cayenne Pepper
Mix ingredients well and allow to rest for one hour. Resting the mixture allows the flavors to blend well and makes a more consistent sauce.

This recipe yields 14 ounces of sauce and will cover 50-100 wings. DO NOT add water to this mixture…it will make your chicken wings soggy.

Fry the chicken wings in vegetable oil at 350°F for 12 minutes (do not overload the frying container - half full only).

To ensure the chicken is properly cooked, insert a meat thermometer into the meat, down to the bone - internal temperature should be 190° - 210°F.

Place approximately twenty wings in a bowl and add six ounces (1/2 cup) of sauce per twenty wings.

Toss wings in bowl until they are completely covered with sauce (that is the wings, not you!)

Spicy Sriracha Chicken Wings

Active time: 1 HR
Total time: 1 HR 30 MIN plus 4 hr marinating
Serves: 10

These crispy chicken wings get their heat from Sriracha, the Thai hot sauce.

Ingredients:

10 pounds chicken wings, split
1/4 cup coriander seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 cup Sriracha chile sauce
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Finely grated zest and juice of 3 limes
3 quarts vegetable oil, for frying

Directions:

In a very large bowl, toss the wings with the coriander and cumin seeds, cinnamon, kosher salt and olive oil. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 375°. Spread the wings on 3 large rimmed baking sheets and roast for about 30 minutes, until firm but not cooked through. (At this point, if you don't want to fry the wings, you can roast them for 1 hour longer, until crispy and golden.)

Wash out the bowl. Add the Sriracha, butter, cilantro, lime zest and juice.

In a deep fryer or a very large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to 375°.
Fry the wings in 4 or 5 batches until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes per batch; drain, shaking off the excess oil. As each batch is finished, add the wings to the sauce and toss well. Transfer the wings to a platter, leaving the sauce in the bowl for the remaining batches.

Serve hot.
