    I used Dizzy Pig IPA seasoning (my fave!) and a nice beer to make Double IPA Chicken Wings!” The flavor is out of this world!

    4 Grilled Double IPA Chicken Wings

    January and February have hit us hard with the weather! We want to be out on the deck, listening to music and enjoying our weekends. Instead, we are constantly fighting the snow and cold. That’s ok. Mother Nature thinks she can get to us but we’ve got her beat at this game! We’ve got a cold-weather system down and we just adjust what we are going to grill!

    I almost can’t wait to pick these up and eat them!

    We love grilling wings that have a mixture of flavors. The dry rub combination with the sauce offers a great flavor!

    🍲 Preparation

    Step One: In a pan over medium heat, sauté onions in olive oil for five to six minutes or until translucent. Add in the garlic and sauté for one more minute.

    Step Two: Add in all of the ingredients and simmer.  Add salt and pepper, to taste. This is a great time for a dump-and-go step.

    Step Three: Allow it to cool. Once it is cooled down, you can either put in the refrigerator overnight or take it directly to the blender.  

    🔥 Grilling Instructions

    Step One: Place a ¼-½ cup of Dizzy Pig IPA rub in a bowl. Rub that seasoning onto your wings. Get into all the crevices.

    Step Two: Heat the grill to 350 degrees.

    Step Three: Wait until it is fully heated and place the chicken wings with the IPA dry rub on the grate.  Let it cook for three to four minutes and then turn the wings over for another three to four minutes.

    Step Four: We apply the sauce the same way each time but love it nonetheless. Using a long basting brush, brush on the sauce and allow it to glaze for a minute or so. Then add another layer on top of it. You can let it glaze another minute or so before flipping and repeating the process.

    💡 Recipe Tips

    One layer of sauce just isn’t enough to get the sticky, ooey-gooey sauce you want on a wing! Don’t skip the two-step method. The heat does the work for you by making the sauce thicken up and stick to the skin of the wings. Then when you apply sauce again, it doesn’t rub off the first layer of sauce. Try it!

    Garlic Wings

    Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings – These tasted even better the second day after they were reheated, so make sure you make enough to have leftovers. They are so garlicky and yummy to eat!

    Pineapple Mango Wings – These tasty wings have a homemade sauce that you can create in no time. A little taste of the tropics are on tap here and the two tastes marry perfectly!

    Apricot Chicken Wings – These are a hybrid recipe made with the base of a jar of jam, which is one of my favorite ways to make a creative sauce! Ohhhhh, don’t skip these. Also try using the drudging technique of taking the wing off the grill and drudging in the sauce and placing back on the grill instead of brushing on the sauce.

    Ingredients

    • 8 Chicken Wings
    • 1/4 cup IPA BBQ Dry Rub Dizzy Pig

    IPA BBQ Sauce

    • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
    • 1/2 cup Onion chopped
    • 3 cloves Garlic minced
    • 2 cups Ketchup
    • 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
    • 1 tbsp Agave or honey
    • 1/2 tsp Horseradish Mustard
    • 2 tsp Brown Sugar
    • 1/2 tsp Salt
    • 1/2 tsp Pepper
    • 1 bottle IPA Beer

    Instructions

    IPA BBQ Sauce

    • In a pan over medium heat, heat olive oil and add onion. Saute until translucent or about 5-6 minutes. Add garlic cloves and cook an additional minute. 
    • Add all remaining ingredients. Allow to simmer 15-20 minutes to thicken. 
    • Allow to cool. Once it is fully cooled down, blend in a sturdy blender so the onion is fully incorporated into the sauce. 

    Grill the Double IPA Chicken Wings

    • Heat the grill to 350 degrees
    • Apply a liberal coating of the Dry Rub to the wings
    • Grill the chicken wings for three to four minutes and turn them over to grill for another three to four minutes
    • Brush the IPA Sauce on the wings.  Let them cook for another minute to let the sauce glaze.  Turn the wings over and repeat the brushing process.

    Notes

    There is enough sauce to coast 18-24 wings, depending on how many times you brush on the sauce and how large the wings are. 
    Store the extra sauce in a jar in the refrigerator.
