Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Aluminum foil
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or fork
  • Saucepan
  • Tongs or spatula
  • Brush (optional)
  • Oven or grill

Ingredients

For the wings

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the BBQ sauce

  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) or prepare your grill for medium-high heat.
  • Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil and position a wire rack over it. This will help the wings cook evenly and prevent sticking.
  • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and season them with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  • Arrange the wings on the wire rack and place them in the preheated oven or on the grill. Cook for about 40-45 minutes, or until the wings are crispy and golden brown, flipping them halfway through the cooking process.
  • For the BBQ sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine all the BBQ sauce ingredients. Whisk or stir well to ensure the sugar is fully dissolved and the ingredients are combined.
  • Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
  • Take the saucepan off the heat and place it aside.
  • Finishing the wings: After the wings are done cooking, move them to a spacious mixing bowl.
  • Pour the prepared BBQ sauce over the wings and toss them until they are evenly coated. Reserve some sauce for brushing if desired.
  • Place the coated wings back on the wire rack and return them to the oven or grill for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the sauce caramelizes and becomes sticky.
  • If desired, brush the wings with the reserved BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Once done, remove the wings from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
