Triple Hot Chicken

If you like Buffalo wings you’ll like this grilled chicken version from the National Chicken Council. Note: the recipe instructions suggests using frozen chicken parts. I would not do that personally and would use defrosted chicken parts. If using defrosted, adjust cooktime accordingly.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 2 1⁄2 lbs chicken drumsticks, thighs or 2 1⁄2 lbs chicken wings
• 3⁄4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 3⁄4 cup granulated sugar
• 2  tablespoons  liquid hot pepper sauce
• 1  tablespoon chili powder
• 1  tablespoon onion powder
• 1  tablespoon garlic powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1. Preheat grill to medium (if using gas grill), or until charcoal is covered with gray ash and is medium-hot. Meanwhile, combine vinegar, sugar, pepper sauce, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder and cayenne to make hot sauce; mix well. Set aside 3/4 cup of mixture to serve as dipping sauce; use remaining for basting.
2. Place chicken on grill. Brush with basting sauce. Grill for 15 minutes (10 minutes for wings), basting often. Turn chicken over and baste again. Basting often, grill for 15 to 20 minutes more (10 to 15 minutes for wings) or until internal juices run clear. Discard leftover basting sauce.
3. Serve chicken with reserved hot sauce.
