Molasses Gochujang Wings With Alabama White Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the wings: Preheat a grill to 300 degrees F.
• Combine salt, brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Reserve 1 teaspoon for the barbecue sauce, then add hot sauce and chicken wings and mix by hand until fully incorporated. Allow wings to marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerated up to 24 hours.
• For the Alabama white barbecue sauce: Place mayonnaise, vinegar, gochujang, salt, Worcestershire, mustard powder, cayenne, black pepper, garlic, ginger and reserved spice mix in a food processor or blender and puree until completely smooth. Transfer to a serving dish and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Grill wings, turning every 10 minutes to prevent the sugars from burning, until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 1 hour. (Be sure to take the temperature on both the drummettes and flats, as they have different cooking times.) Serve with Alabama white barbecue sauce.

Steps:

• Prepare a smoker to 250 degrees F.
• For the rub: Combine the salt, brown sugar, paprika, white sugar, lemon pepper, chili powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, dry mustard and garlic powder in a large bowl.
• For the wings: Wash and drain the chicken wings in a 2-compartment sink. Drain in a colander and move to a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the rub and toss. Distribute the wings evenly on smoker racks. Smoke for 2 1/2 hours. Place in a cooler overnight. When ready to eat, fry a serving for 1 to 2 minutes in hot oil and toss in some Alabama white sauce.
• Mix the mayonnaise, vinegar, white sugar, black pepper, kosher salt, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce and minced garlic in a bowl.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in bowl and mix well.

Steps:

• For the wings: Season the wings with the salt and pepper and place in the air-fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the gochujang, mayonnaise, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, sugar, agave and a pinch of salt; set aside.
• As you near the 20-minute mark, use a meat thermometer to check the meat. When the wings reach 160 degrees F, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour about half the sauce on the wings; toss to coat (serve the remaining sauce as a dip).
• Return the wings to the air-fryer basket and cook for 5 minutes, until the sauce has glazed.
• Transfer the wings to a serving platter. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and scallions. Serve with the reserved sauce on the side for dipping.
