BBQ chicken wings Archives

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

These Backyard BBQ wings bring back memories. Memories of years ago, as a kid, enjoying those classic neighborhood grill-outs. The dad’s huddled around charcoal grills, the mom’s chatting away in a circle of lawn chairs. You’d find mostly grilled chicken and burgers. The chicken would be heavily brushed in BBQ sauce. Like these wings. Same great flavors as back then, but on delicious wings instead.

There’s nothing I would change about Backyard BBQ wings. They’re easy to make. That’s the point. Barbecues are about spending time with neighbors and friends, and not spending hours in the kitchen making a wing sauce! The wings come out juicy, tender and delicious. And they remind me of that grilled chicken from long ago.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Feel free to substitute my copycat Dreamland BBQ sauce for the Bull’s Eye sauce!

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.
