directions

  • 1

    Rinse wings under cold water, drain and dry. Make 2-3 slashed, to the bone, in the meaty part of each wing. Place in nonreactive bowl and stir in oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, beer, salt and pepper. Cover, and marinate in refrigerator for up to 4 hours, turning occasionally.

  • 2

    To make sauce, heat oil, add onion, garlic, ginger, and hot pepper flakes and saute’, stirring until onion and garlic are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in ketchup, beer, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, soy sauce, mustard and pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently until sauce is thick and richly flavored, 10-15 minutes. Remove and take out one cup, set aside for serving.

  • 3

    Preheat grill. Drain wings and put them on hot grate, pulling them open to expose as much skin as possible to flame. Grill, turning several times until thicker wing sections are no longer pink near the bone, 12-16 minutes. Start basting the wings with barbeque the last 5 minutes, then transfer to a platter and brush with sauce again.

    Serve accompanied by the reserved sauce.

notes

The recipe calls for Australian beer, like Fosters, but any beer really is fine.
