For the Wings:
- 3 pounds Chicken Wings if whole cut the chicken wings into sections
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
For the Hot Honey Sauce:
- 1/4 cup Butter melted
- 1/4 cup Honey
- 1/2 cup Hot Sauce
Preheat the grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F) and rub the grill grates with oil to prevent the chicken wings from sticking to the grill.
Dry the chicken as much as possible and then season the chicken with the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Place the chicken wings on the grill over direct heat. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes flipping them every 2-3 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
Remove from the grill. Place the chicken in a large bowl.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium low heat.
Once the butter has melted, stir in the honey and hot sauce until combined.
Simmer on low for 2 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Pour the sauce on top of the chicken wings and toss to thoroughly coat the chicken.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Make sure to dry the chicken wings thoroughly before grilling to make sure you have crispy wings.
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Use an oil with a high heat rate to oil the grill gates. Avocado oil, vegetable or coconut oil all work great.
