Cedar Planked Wings

These should be called Fire Cedar Planked Wings, to be honest--quite warm! Needed salt, would add to part where they are tossed in the sauce at end. Also did not bother with doing the "indirect" side of grill thing, just melted it in microwave and stirred together.  It doesn't say to, but I tossed them in the sauce at the end, might be the fire content! I also left the lid "cracked" open to make sure the fire stayed very hot until the last 5 min.

Ingredients:

2 oz. tequila

3/4 c. olive oil

4 tsp. ancho chili powder, divided

2 lbs. chicken wings (or drumettes)

1/3 c. butter

1/2 c. hot sauce

1 cedar plank, soaked in water for at least an hour.

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine the tequila, olive oil, and 2 tsp. of the ancho chili powder. Toss the chicken wings in this mixture, coating well. Cover and place in fridge to marinate for at least 1 hour.

2. Heat your grill (if using one with a temperature setting, 350-450°F). Take wings from marinade and arrange on the soaked plank. Once the grill has heated, place the plank directly over the coals.

3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl or pan, melt the butter (I used a bowl/microwave, as stated above). Stir in the hot sauce and the remaining 2 tsp. ancho powder.

4. After 20 min, turn the wings over on the plank. Baste with the butter sauce. Let grill for 5 more minutes, then turn back to other side. Grill for 5 additional min.

5. If desired, toss in the sauce again after finishing on the grill. Enjoy!
