The Ingredients

Serves: 4

  • 5 pounds of raw chicken wings
  • 2 TB of Olive oil
  • 3 TB Acme BBQ Rub #103
  • For the Creamy Parmesan Wing Sauce
  • 2 cups mayonnaise
  • 2 TB chopped garlic
  • 6 TB Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1 TB Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 ½ TB Cholula Hot Sauce
  • 1 TB Chives, chopped
  • 1 tsp green onion, chopped
  • 1 TB Fresh Lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Acme STK Blend

Tips

KEEP IN MIND

  • Dry marinate the chicken wings for 12 to 24 hours. Less time is ok, but you will have a little less flavor in the meat.
  • You can cook the wings in an oven for about 25 minutes, or in a smoker for about 45 minutes.
  • For the Wing Sauce, you can soak the STK Blend in 3 tsp of milk (or substitute) for 30 minutes to soften the dehydrated vegetables in the seasoning. This is optional.

The Method

Step 1

Remove chicken wings from their packaging, and dry them off with several paper towels.


Step 2

Place the dried wings in a medium size bowl. Pour olive oil over the wings and with your hands move the wings around to be sure all have a coating of oil.

Step 3
Sprinkle 2 TB of Acme BBQ Rub #103 over the oiled wings in the bowl, again, move them around to coat the wings. Lastly add 1 TB more of the BBQ Rub to the wings and give them a gentle stir with your hands.

Step 4
The wings now need to be refrigerated for 12 to 24 hours. They can be on a rimmed baking sheet, or in the bowl, or in a zip top bag. Be sure that if you are not using the bag, that the wings are covered well with plastic wrap. (Do not use foil.)

Step 5
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, or your smoker to 250 degrees.

Step 6
Put your wings on a rimmed baking sheet to prepare them for cooking in the oven. Or if smoking, use a smoking wire basket, or wire rack.

Step 7
You can sprinkle a little BBQ Rub #103 on the wings now just before you put them in the oven or smoker.

Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the center of a hot oven, or in the center of your hot smoker. Allow the oven wings to cook for about 25 min and/or until the internal temperature of the thickest part is 185 degrees. For the wings in the smoker let them cook for about 45 min and/or until the internal temperature of the thickest part is 185 degrees.

Step 9
Once the wings are at the proper temperature, remove them from where they were cooking and you can place them onto your serving platter. You can toss all or some of the wings in the Creamy Parmesan Wing Sauce (ingredients above, method below). Serve and enjoy!

Creamy Parmesan Wing Sauce Method:

Step 1
Mix all ingredients together in a medium size mixing bowl.

Step 2
Taste. Add more Acme STK Blend if it is needed.

Step 3
Reserve about ½ cup to ¾ cup of sauce for dipping if you desire.

Step 4
Toss all or some of your wings in this sauce as soon as they are cooked through.

Step 5
Serve on a platter and garnish with a little sliced green onion.
