The Cabin Life chicken wing recipe sounds good, especially if you have the time to work them on the grill for an hour or so.
If not, and you are cooking for a crowd, I use this method:
-get fresh or frozen wings (uncooked) and deep fry them for about 8-9 minutes per batch.
I use a normal sized home deep fryer with basket that holds about 10 wings comfortably per batch.
Once they are fried (multiple fry batches) all you gotta do is toss them in your favorite sauce, homemade or jar or combination.
The beauty of this method for entertaining, you can freeze the cooked/fried wings back up and take out and thaw just before tossing in a fry pan on the grill burner
So you can be working something else on the grill and casually be stirring your fry pan wings at the same time.
I have done this for camping trips and dropped frozen wings into cooler to be used sometime over the weekend.
I prefer a jar branded sauce available to me here from a barbecue chain called Williamson Bros. I add a liberal amount of honey to it and some additional pepper usually. Great tasting sauce without it too.
Thanks for the suggestion! Any idea whether Williamson Bros. BBQ sauce can be purchased online?

enjoy, post back if you try other additives other than the honey I suggested
Excellent, this gives me another excuse to make wings again. I'll just tell my wife that I have to do it for "research."

I'm frying up a large batch tonight to freeze. Have a soiree next week at the lake and need a quick cook appetizer.
Fried up 50 wings last night, gotta love the smell it adds to the house. Froze them up and will pull them out on Wednesday and stir them into sauce on Thursday.
Sounds great! We love wings! After driving up for only the weekend...we usually have Pizza ( with the Pizza Oven) and wings on firday night. That would work great freezing them!!!!!!!!!
