Title: Chris Lilly’s Spicy Apricot Wings - PBC Style
Post by: ACW3 on January 26, 2013, 11:37:23 PM
Chris Lilly’s Spicy Apricot Wings
1 cup apricot preserves
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons kosher salt
4 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon ground ginger
2 ½ pounds of chicken wings

I mixed the marinade ingredients in small bowl and whisked until well blended.  The only change I made was to use ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper instead of the 1 teaspoon the original recipe called for.  I did this to keep the wife happy.  She doesn’t like real hot, and cayenne can get hot.  I poured the marinade into my vacuum tumbler and added ten chicken wings.  They were tumbled for 20 minutes.

Using my new leg/wing rack, I took the marinated wings and put them on the rack.

Next was onto the grill grate on the PBC.  I tried to see if I could hang the rack, but it would not have been the best choice, IMO.

After 50 minutes, I checked the wing temps with my thermometer.

I removed the wing rack from the PBC and brought them into the kitchen for serving.

Would I use this recipe again?  Absolutely!!  I might try some jalapeno powder instead of the cayenne, next time.  These wings were outstanding!!

Those wings sure do look good Art. I have wanted to do aprircot base sauce or marinade but the wife doesn't like them. Might just have to try them. I got to quit looking at posts using the PBC, wife wouldn't like me getting one of those either! Don

Don,
Do what I did around Christmas-time.  The wife couldn't come up with a present for me, so she asked me what I wanted.  I told her I needed a new "toy", and it just happened to be on sale with free shipping.  She relented and has enjoyed what I have been cooking.  She prefers charcoal for most of her BBQ prepared meals.  The low-and-slow still get the pellets on my MAK.

Good luck!

Nice Art!  The whole wings are a nice change from the typical flats & drumettes.
