No matter who you are or where you're from, there is nothing better than a backyard BBQ. Or a beach BBQ. Or a State Park BBQ. Or a BBQ in someone else's backyard. Hey, they're just plain fun. Here are some great BBQ ideas for your next get-together.
Hot Wings:
These spicy little suckers are one of the best BBQ ideas ever. Nothing says, "Eatin' in the yard," like hot wings. Here's how to make up a bunch of these yummy appetizers that your crowd will really love.
What You'll Need:
• About 20 chicken wings
• Olive Oil
• ½ cup of Ketchup
• 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
• ¼ a cup of balsamic vinegar
• 4 teaspoons of garlic powder
• 3 teaspoons of Tabasco Sauce
• 2 teaspoons of mustard – you can use plain or Dijon
• 4 teaspoons of Worcestershire
• 2 teaspoons each of Paprika and Chili powder
What You Do:
You want to combine all of the ingredients except for the Olive Oil and the chicken. Place them all into a large mixing bowl and stir until they are thoroughly blended.
Rinse and dry the wings, and place them into a large Ziploc bag or a container with a lid. Place the mixture into the bag and shake until all of the wings are coated.
Put this in the fridge for around 4 to 6 hours. One of the greatest BBQ ideas is to start 'get together' foods like this the night before. Then they can sit in the fridge and soak up the goodness.
You want to get the grill nice and hot, and then take the wings out and throw the marinade away. Brush or spray the wings with the Olive Oil, and sear those babies on medium high heat for, oh, around 4 to 6 minutes.
After that, move them to an area of the grill where they can cook on indirect medium heat for around 8 minutes. You want to check and make sure that there is no pink remaining. This recipe makes around 6 servings. Enjoy!
