  • 1 cup Frank’s RedHot Original Sauce
  • 4 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tsp. white vinegar

To serve

  • celery, for serving
  • blue cheese dressing, for serving

1 Food Prep

First, apply the seasonings to all sides of the pig wings. Next, rub in the olive oil to coat evenly. Finally, make the sauce by stirring the hot sauce with the melted butter and vinegar.

2 Grill Prep

Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets

Method: Direct-Heat Grilling

3 The Cook

  • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

  • Place the wings on the grill and cook, turning often, until slightly charred and cooked through, and reach an internal temperature of 145ºF, about 15 minutes.

  • Baste the wings and continue to cook, turning and basting occasionally, for another five minutes, until the wings are glazed and golden. Discard hot sauce after basting.

  • Serve the wings hot with celery and blue cheese dressing on the side.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from A little tough Good recipe. I think the meat still needs to be cooked a little lower and slower to make it more tender. Can be hard to find "pig wings" also.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pig Wings? So, I was intrigued by the whole "pig wing" thing and had to give this recipe a shot. I went to my local butcher and asked for this cut and he had no trouble providing them. Seasoned them, put them on the grill and, oh my goodness, I don't think I need a chicken wing ever again! These are the bomb and you will not regret giving these a try!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from When Pigs Fly I didn't know pigs had wings until reading your recipe. I asked my butcher to save me some next time he was cutting hams. I followed your recipe cooking a little slower with lower temp and adding some maple smoke to the cook. The pigs wings are incredible. If are looking for something to impress your friends and family, these a wonderful and easy to prepare.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding Flavor I am a Rib Fanatic & this Recipe really appealled to me. These Ribs were amazing with flavor. I followed the Recipe as instructed except I used Apple Cider Vinegar because nothing goes better with Pork than Apples & I was out of White Vinegar. My Guests were really impressed. I served it with Blue Cheese Dressing, Celery & Carrot Sticks.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Pig Wing? What in the world is a “pig wing”? My biggest compliment here is the recipe does not explain “unusual” ingredients.
