Instructions
The Marinade
-
In a large bowl, combine garlic, ginger, chili powder, cumin, salt, vinegar, honey, oil, and BBQ sauce.
-
Stir well.
-
Add wings to the bowl and toss thoroughly with your hands.
-
Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (longer, up to 24 hours, boosts flavor).
-
Remove from fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
Prep the Grill
-
Lightly oil grill grates to prevent sticking.
-
Preheat to around 218 °C (425 °F).
-
Place wings on the grill.
-
Cook 15–20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until the internal temperature hits 73 °C (165 °F) and the skin is golden and crispy.
-
For extra char, leave them a little longer once they reach safe temp.
-
Remove wings and let them rest a few minutes before serving—this helps them stay juicy.
