Instructions

FOR THE ALABAMA WHITE BBQ SAUCE

  1. Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth.
  2. Use the white bbq sauce right away, or transfer to a sealable jar and refrigerate a few hours to let the flavors develop and meld.

FOR THE CHICKEN WINGS

  1. Set the chicken wings into a large bowl. Add salt, garlic, peppercorns and honey, then cover with water. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours to brine. You can brine longer for more flavor penetration. I often brine overnight.
  2. Remove and pat the wings dry.
  3. Set them into a large bowl and rub the Cajun seasonings into the skins. Get it in there!
  4. Heat a grill to medium heat and grill the wings for 20 minutes, turning once halfway through. Keep an eye on them so the skins do not overcook. They are done when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. when measured with a meat thermometer.
  5. Once cooked through, toss the wings with the Alabama White BBQ Sauce and serve.

Notes

  • Spice Factor: Mild-Medium, though you can spice it up if you’d like with hotter powders and/or chili flakes. This isn’t meant to be very hot.
