Equipment

Ingredients

  • chicken wings
  • Feathered Formula BBQ rub

Instructions

  • Set your grill up for indirect cooking at 400°F.
  • Gas Grill: Turn the burners on one side of the grill to high and leave the other side on low
    Charcoal Grill: Heat up a chimney of charcoal and place the coals on one side of the grill, or use a deflector plate to divert the heat around the chicken during the cook
    Pellet Grill: These are naturally indirect cookers, so set to 400°F
  • Cut whole wings into party style wings (drums and flats)
  • Coat each wing section with a medium coat of Feathered Formula bbq rub
  • Place wings on the grill over indirect heat for 15 minutes.
  • Flip the wings over to the other side for 15 more minutes.
  • Flip the wings over to the other side and check the internal doneness with an instant read thermometer
  • Chicken wings are done when they hit an internal temperature of 175°, but I like to take mine to 185° for a more crispy skin and a tender bite. If they’re still not up to temperature after 30 minutes of combined cooking time, set 5 minute timers to check internal doneness until desired temperature is reached.
