INGREDIENTS

Preparation

2–3 lbs chicken wings
1 tbsp your favorite BBQ rub
½ tsp chili flakes (optional)

PB&J Sauce

1 tbsp olive oil
½ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ cup jam (grape or strawberry work best)
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp hot honey

Finish

1 tsp garlic powder

WHY IT WORKS

Dry rub and a kiss of smoke give it a savory backbone that plays nice with the sweet sauce.
PB & J glaze: peanut butter goes silky, jam brings the sweet, soy and hot honey sneak in the salty-heat.

TIPS

Pat wings completely dry before oiling for maximum crispiness.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Prepare and Season Chicken Wings

Paste the chicken wings dry. Toss with barbecue seasoning and chili flakes (if using). Let sit for 10 minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate.

Step 2: Slow Smoking at a Low Temperature

Preheat the Z Grills to 250°F (approximately 120°C). Place the chicken wings directly on the grill or a tray and slow smoke for 45-60 minutes.

Step 3: Make and Spread Peanut Butter and Jam

Heat in a saucepan and whisk together peanut butter, jam, olive oil, and honey until smooth. Brush or toss the sauce evenly over or over the chicken wings.
