wilburpan Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 It looks like this:I used the trick of tossing the wings with a 50/50 mixture of salt and baking powder to get really crispy skin. The wings sat for about 2 hours, and then I cooked them indirect at 400ºF for about 45 minutes, turning them over about halfway through.All done and ready to serve. You would swear that these wings were deep fried.We wanted to eat healthy, so we made a wing salad, for the fiber, you know. Just kidding! This is how we plated the wings. Everyone in my family likes different sauces, so we put the sauce on the wings individually right before eating them.And I grilled up some portobello mushrooms as a side. The best thing about this cook was at lunch yesterday, I was thinking about what I could cook on Smaug for dinner. Right then, my wife asked me, “What do you want to grill today?†It’s like she can read my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Great way to load up the KK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Wilburpan, you read my mind Last week I read you wing recipe and this morning I put them in for a sit with the bp and salt mix. Now if mine turn out half as good as yours look I'll be very happy. I just might even do up some regular mushrooms too. Dinner looks wonderful even if it was part salad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGGARY Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Interesting idea. How about, instead of the salt use a Rub along with the Baking Powder? Would that work as well ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilburpan Posted June 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Wilburpan, awesome looking wings! Have you tried the BP and Salt rub on a whole chicken?? I have, and it works great. I did that on the rotisserie chicken cook that I did recently. I made a mix of salt, baking powder, pepper and poultry seasoning, and sprinkled it on like a rub to cover the skin. It was great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFrogs91 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Nice Wilbur. Definitely looks fried. I'm a big fan of baking powder as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Wilbur - I've said it before and I say it again ... your cooks are so boring! Perfection gets boring and these cooks on Smaug are perfectly boring! Can't you screw up just once like yours truly and post it here? Wonderfully tasty money shot! Mega kudos, my Friend. Don't forget to post a screw up, okay? My ego needs a boost! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
