Preparation Steps
1
Remove the chicken wings from the refrigerator and let them rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes to ensure even cooking.
2
In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and brown sugar. This will be your dry rub.
3
Drizzle the chicken wings with olive oil, then evenly sprinkle with the dry rub. Massage it into the meat, ensuring every wing is coated.
4
Preheat your grill to medium heat (approximately 350°F or 180°C). If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C) on a convection setting.
5
Place the chicken wings on the grill or a baking rack and cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping occasionally to ensure even browning.
6
In a small saucepan, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, and BBQ sauce. This will be your glaze.
7
During the last 10 minutes of cooking, begin brushing the chicken wings with the honey-mustard BBQ sauce. Apply a coat after each flip to build up a layered glaze.
8
Remove the chicken wings from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve with fresh vegetables or coleslaw.
