Grilled Boysenberry BBQ Wings

Author Mark & Fey
Course Appetizer, Tailgate
Keyword Aviation American Gin, chicken wings

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken wings split into flats and drumettes
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • Black pepper for seasoning
  • Garlic powder for seasoning
  • 1 cup boysenberry jam
  • ½ cup apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup fresh boysenberries or blackberries
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 2 tablespoons maple sugar
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes
  • ½ teaspoon ground chile powder

Instructions

  • A day before you plan to eat them, generously season the wings on both sides with kosher salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Spread the wings out on a drying rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate the wings overnight. 
  • Set a grill for a medium indirect heat, about 375º F. Grill the wings directly on the grates until they reach 155 F, roughly 25 minutes. Meanwhile, make the boysenberry sauce. 
  • Combine the boysenberry jam, fresh blackberries, grated fresh ginger, vinegar and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook until the fresh berries burst and it starts to thicken, about 5 minutes. Add the ketchup, molasses, sugar, chili flakes and ground chile powder. Season with more salt and black pepper and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until thickened. 
  • Remove the wings from the grill to a large bowl and toss with half of the sauce. Set the grill to medium-high heat, about 450 F. Return the wings to the grill over direct heat. Your goal is a good char, about 2 minutes per side. Be careful, these can go from charred to burned quickly.
  • Serve the wings hot with additional boysenberry sauce for dipping and our Aviation Gin Mule.
