3 The Cook

  • Cover the grill and adjust your vents to maintain a temperature of 275°F, then lay out your chicken wings on the grill over indirect heat, keeping a slight amount of space between each wing.

  • Place the thermometer probe into the thickest part of your chicken wing without touching the bone.
  • Cook your chicken wings until they reach an internal temperature of 175°F, around 75–90 minutes.

  • Optional: Baste your wings with your favorite sauce and allow them to caramelize over direct heat for 1–2 minutes. Then, remove them from the grill and serve!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Loved it! I wasn’t expecting the recipe to be easy to follow. The chicken wings came out so good. I wish I took a picture before eating them. Kingsford is the only brand I can depend on when it comes to grilling so I was not disappointed using their recipe.
