Ingredients

  • 2 lb. wings
  • 2 (6 oz.) bottles Louisiana hot sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • juice of 1 clove garlic
  • celery salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Mix half of the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic juice, and celery salt to create the marinade.
  2. Put half of the marinade in a bowl and marinate the wings overnight.
  3. Drain the wings when ready to cook.
  4. Preheat the grill and cook the wings, turning frequently.
  5. When almost done, place the wings in a bowl with the remaining marinade and 2 tablespoons of butter, stirring to coat.
  6. Return the wings to the grill and cook, turning once, until fully cooked.

Tips & Substitutions

For extra flavor, let the wings marinate for 24 hours instead of overnight. If you prefer a milder wing, reduce the amount of hot sauce or mix in a bit of honey for sweetness. You can also substitute the Louisiana hot sauce with a milder hot sauce or a homemade blend if desired. For the garlic, fresh garlic provides a stronger flavor compared to jarred options.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these chicken wings with celery sticks and a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping. They pair beautifully with My Grandmother's Slaw (No Fat - Low Calorie) for a refreshing contrast. For a complete meal, consider serving them alongside Onion-Roasted Potatoes (1993 Taster's Luncheon) or corn on the cob for a delightful summer barbecue.

Storage & Reheating

Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until heated through, ensuring they stay crispy. Alternatively, you can use an air fryer for about 5 minutes for a quick and crispy reheat.
