Delicious Grilled Chicken Wings Recipe for BBQ Lovers

Ingredients

Servings:
10
  • 2 pounds chicken wings (drumettes and flats mixed)
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce (your choice of flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for marinating)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for seasoning)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, and salt to create a marinade.

    Ensure the mixture is well combined.
  2. Marinate the Chicken Wings

    Add chicken wings to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

    For best results, marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
  3. Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).

    Make sure the grill grates are clean and oiled.
  4. Grill the Wings

    Place the marinated wings on the grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally.

    Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  5. Add Barbecue Sauce

    During the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the wings with barbecue sauce, allowing it to caramelize.

    Be careful not to burn the sauce.
