- Savory – from soy sauce bringing that rich umami base
- Zingy – with fresh garlic and ginger to wake up your taste buds
- Spicy (just enough) – a touch of chili paste or sriracha for subtle heat
- Smoky – especially when grilled over charcoal, adding depth and complexity
Step-by-Step Guide to Perfectly Grilled Chicken Wings
Nailing the perfect grilled chicken wings recipe starts well before you hit the grill. First, make sure your wings are fully thawed and patted dry—this helps them crisp up instead of steaming. Trim any excess skin or loose fat, then decide if you want whole wings or to separate them into drumettes and flats for even cooking. A light coating of oil helps prevent sticking, and seasoning with salt or a simple dry rub adds a flavorful base layer. Whether you're going for smoky, spicy, or sweet later on, this prep sets the foundation for truly great texture and taste. Knowing how to grill chicken wings begins with proper prep—and when done right, your Masterbuilt grilled wings will come off the grates perfectly crisp, juicy, and ready for any glaze or sauce
