Detroit-style honey wings: Grilled chicken wings with honey glaze, tossed in spicy honey butter sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds chicken wings, tips discarded
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (add more if you can stand it)
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup honey, divided
  • 0.5 cup butter, melted
  • 0.5 cup hot sauce
Instructions:
  • Get your outdoor grill to that perfect medium heat and give the grate a nice light coating of oil.
  • Thoroughly wash wings and gently dry them with paper towels. Then, generously season the wings with cayenne, salt, and pepper.
  • Grill chicken wings, basting generously with 1/2 cup honey, until fully cooked and juices are clear, for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine melted butter with hot sauce and the remaining 1/2 cup honey.
  • Take the wings off the grill and toss them right away in the tantalizing hot honey butter sauce for a delectable coating. Serve the wings moist as is or place them back on the grill for 1 minute per side to lock in the flavors of the sauce.
