Ingredients

  • 3 pounds of chicken wings flats and drumettes
  • Brine for Chicken Wings optional, but recommended
  • 1/4 cup plus 1/2 teaspoon Honey BBQ Rub or your favorite sweet BBQ rub
  • 1/2 cup Peach jelly
  • 1/2 cup Jalapeno jelly
  • 1/4 cup Apple juice or peach nectar

Instructions

  • Brine wings for 3-4 hours.
  • Prepare the peach jalapeno BBQ glaze reduction by simmering peach jelly, jalapeno jelly, juice, and 1/2 teaspoon rub in a saucepan over medium-low heat until melted through and well combined.
  • Remove from heat, cover, and set aside. Thin out with juice or water before use as needed.
  • Preheat your grill to 325 degrees F or medium heat. Have a reliable instant-read thermometer handy! You'll need it.
  • Remove wings from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Coat well with spice rub.
  • Place wings on the grill and cook for 30-40 minutes, turning a few times during cooking.
  • Once wings have cooked to an internal temperature between 165 degrees and are crispy, remove them from heat and place them into a large bowl. If they are not crisp enough, remove the wings and increase the heat to high, then place them back on for 3-4 minutes to crisp up. For charcoal and gas, place them over a direct heat source to finish off.
  • Coat wings with peach-habanero BBQ glaze, and toss to coat with tongs. Place them into an aluminum drip pan, and place them back on the grill for a few minutes until the glaze caramelizes and the wings have a candied appearance.
  • Remove and serve.
  • Store the leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Freeze for up to 3 months. Use vacuum-sealed bags for best results. Reheat in the oven or air fryer until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
