Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Blackberry BBQ Chicken Wings.
Step 1
Start by preheating your outdoor grill to a medium heat, and don’t forget to lightly oil the grate to keep those delicious wings from sticking.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine fresh blackberries, ketchup, a quarter cup of water, sliced jalapeños, cider vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and a splash of liquid smoke.
Step 3
Stir in some zesty lime juice and bring this vibrant mixture to a boil.
Step 4
Once it’s bubbling away, lower the heat to medium and let it simmer for about five minutes, giving it a gentle stir now and then to keep things moving.
Step 5
While that’s happening, grab a separate cup and mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water until it’s nice and smooth.
Step 6
Stir this mixture into your simmering sauce and let it continue to cook until it thickens up and becomes syrupy, which should take about five more minutes.
Step 7
Once it reaches that perfect consistency, remove it from the heat and set it aside to cool a bit.
Step 8
Now, let’s get those chicken wings ready! In a large bowl, toss the wings with a drizzle of vegetable oil, making sure they’re evenly coated.
Step 9
Season them generously with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 10
Place the wings on your preheated grill and let them cook for 20 to 25 minutes, turning them occasionally to achieve that beautiful char and ensure they’re cooked through.
Step 11
While the wings are grilling to perfection, take a moment to strain your sauce through a fine mesh strainer into a container.
Step 12
Use a spoon to press down and extract every last drop of that flavorful liquid.
Step 13
Once your wings are done, transfer them to a clean bowl and pour the hot blackberry BBQ sauce over them.
Step 14
Toss everything together until the wings are beautifully coated in that rich, tangy sauce.
Step 15
Serve them hot, and get ready to enjoy a mouthwatering treat that’s sure to impress!.
