Ingredients

Marinade and Glaze

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Slap Yo’ Daddy Jailbird Chicken Rub
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried chili flakes
  • 3 pieces star anise

Chicken Wings

  • 8 chicken wings

Equipment

  • grill
  • 1 5-gallon ziplock bag

Directions

Marinade and Glaze

  • In a saucepan, combine the honey, sriracha, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic, Slap Yo’ Daddy Jailbird Chicken Rub, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, chili flakes, and star anise.
  • Simmer the marinade for about 5 minutes until the flavors are blended. Discard the star anise and allow it to cool.
  • Place the marinade and wings in a gallon plastic zip bag and refrigerate for 1 hour.

To Cook

  • Prepare a grill to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) with hot and cool zones.
  • Remove the wings from the marinade bag.
  • Place the marinade into a saucepan and simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce is reduced and becomes thick.
    Note: Do not omit this step to cook the marinade as it is used to baste the cooked wings. Alternatively, baste the wings with a freshly made marinade that did not come in contact with raw chicken.
  • Grill the wings in the hot zone to get some color and crispy skin. Baste the wings with the reduced marinade.
  • Once color and char are formed, move the wings to the cool zone and cook until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) is reached.
  • Rest for 5 minutes then serve.
