Lampe's Chicken Wings With Sweet-And-Spicy Pantry Sauce

Scoutie's Note:

Ray Lampe is a national barbecue champion and the owner of a roadside barbecue stand in Lakeland, Florida. I am putting this here for safe-keeping, I haven't tried it yet. If you can't grill, you can put them in the oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes, basting occasionally. Cooking time does not include marinading time, so plan accordingly.

• Total Time: 40 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 16 chicken wings, with the two joints attached, tips removed
• 1 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup hot sauce
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon light brown sugar

Directions:

1. Make a slash on the inside of the chicken wing joints without cutting through the bone and in a few other places.
2. In a large, shallow baking dish, combine the ketchup with the mustard, hot sauce, soy sauce and brown sugar. Add the chicken wings and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
3. Light a grill.
4. Remove the chicken wings from the marinade (pantry sauce), leaving some of it on them, and reserve the remaining marinade.
5. Grill the wings over a medium-hot fire, turning and basting them with the reserved marinade, until nicely charred and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
6. Stop basting during the last 5 minutes of grilling and discard any remaining marinade.
7. Serve the wings hot or at room temperature.
