No pictures, they went too fast, but I made the best wings today with the vortex.
1. Buy whole wings
2. Split into wings and drums per GF's request (optional)
3. Heavy salt and pepper; toss
4. Dredge in flour
5. I used an almost full chimney of K Comp in the vortex. Chunk of cherry wood on the cooking grate with wings around the outside. Bottom vent about 50% open, top vent wide. Was running about 600/650, just under pegged dome therm. You want it hot.
6. After 35 minutes or so tossed with a sauce/glaze of brown sugar, sake, ginger, red pepper flakes., and sesame oil.
7. Garnish with chopped red jalepeņo, green onion, and sesame seed.
Sauce combo is open to anything you want... Hot, sweet, spicy, classic Frank's and melted butter.... dredge wings in flour and cook high indirect
The flour dries the outside and created a crust you can't get with naked wings. These things went so fast.... Can't wait to use the vortex again for wings. Guests could not believe they were not fried even though they watched me cook them.
