Dialing in another wing method
« on: May 06, 2019, 04:56:35 PM »
These were absolutely fantastic. Make a two zone fire and leave the bottom damper wide open an the top closed by half. Make a neat even layer of coal in half. Place the wings on the direct side and close the lid. Turn and rotate the wings every 5 minutes for twenty to thirty minutes. Move indirect to finish. Now the wings are waiting on you while you grill pineapple and make sauce. No coal basket can replicate the true two zone. You don’t always want a blast furnace on the direct side.

I’ve been using a recipe I saw on a abc bbq YouTube video. It’s franks, butter, a little honey, and a little Worcestershire. It’s really good imo.

I used to do mine that same way before silly gadgetry distracted me, It's a fun quick cook and you can't drink too much while doing it

I accidentally pick up the pace on shorter cooks. I told my wife she has to cook tonight so I can take a break from drinking. 

I’ve been using gadgets and baskets a lot lately too but a nice large area of low lying coal on the direct side produces a nice manageable heat to work with. I always find direct heat somehow makes the outside tastes great and the meat way more tender than what I get from an all or mostly all indirect heat.

Old school NEVER disappoints.
And a basting sauce as simple as melted butter can do the trick...
Nicely done...

Good Show!!

That's the general setup that eventually led me to the snake!!

Lower & lower heat, more stretched out coals....but I still go back to just what you're showing for stuff like chicken breast, zucchini, asparagus, etc.

I suck at wings mostly, so maybe this will fix that....thanks, man.....
