Servings: 4–6

Difficulty: Easy


Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken wings
• ¾ cup Big Dog Mango Habanero BBQ Sauce
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Seasoning

• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika

Optional garnish

• chopped cilantro
• lime wedges


Instructions

1. Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium heat (375–400°F).

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Pat the wings dry with paper towels.

Toss the wings in olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.


3. Grill the Wings

Place the wings on the grill and cook for 8–10 minutes per side, turning occasionally until crispy and cooked through.

Internal temperature should reach 165°F.


4. Add the Mango Habanero Sauce

Brush the wings generously with Big Dog Mango Habanero BBQ Sauce during the final few minutes of cooking.

Turn the wings once more so the sauce caramelizes slightly over the flame.


5. Serve

Remove wings from the grill and garnish with chopped cilantro and fresh lime wedges.

Serve with extra Mango Habanero BBQ Sauce for dipping.


Pitmaster Tips

Crispier Wings

Let wings cook uncovered on the grill for the first half of cooking before adding sauce.

Add Sauce Last

BBQ sauce contains sugars that can burn if applied too early.

Use Indirect Heat

If flare-ups occur, move wings to indirect heat to finish cooking.


Perfect Side Dishes

These wings pair perfectly with:

• grilled corn
• coleslaw
• seasoned fries
• potato salad

They’re also great served as an appetizer for backyard gatherings.
