I made a big ole batch of crazy-hot chicken wings the other day. I used Alliger’s Nuclear Chicken wing sauce. Heck yeah they were spicy. But it got me to thinking… I love chicken cooked on my Char-Broil Big Easy. I bet that using the wing sauce as a marinade for chicken would turn out fantastic. And I was right. It did. And this nuclear chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy was as fantastic as I’d hoped!
Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.
Spicy Tender Deliciousness
Nuclear chicken on the Char-Broil Big Easy is everything you imagine. As with any poultry cooked on the Big Easy, the chicken is juicy and tender. The wing sauce adds a fantastic kick to the chicken. I honestly didn’t find it too hot at all. Now you get the heat, don’t get me wrong. But I found it quite pleasant and best of all, it had great flavor. I see no point in adding spiciness if you don’t still get great flavor. Alliger’s Nuclear wing sauce does that and then some.
For smaller things like split chicken breasts, your Big Easy is more than capable of cooking several at once. Bigger birds, well, that’s a one-at-a-time thing. But with bunk bed baskets you can add one or even two more levels of cooking to the standard basket that comes with the Big Easy. It’s a little tricky to get two in there at once, though. To help, I have a little document that will show you how!
