Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups ketchup
  • 1 (12 oz) can Cherry Coke
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • kosher salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes
  • 4 pounds jumbo split chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
  1. Put the ketchup, Cherry Coke, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce, lime juice, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to simmer 15 to 20 minutes, stirring a few times.

    Note: Watch carefully as this comes to a boil, if it bubbles up remove from heat for a moment.

  2. Coat the chicken wings with olive oil and season with kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.

  3. Cook the wings according to one of these methods.

    Smoker: Place the chicken wings in a smoker set to 250 degrees for two and a half hours. Flip them halfway through. Brush with the glaze during the last half hour.

    Oven: Place wings on a lined baking sheet and put in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes, flip them halfway through. Brush with the glaze during the last half hour.

    Griddle: Preheat your griddle to medium/ medium high heat for a few minutes and add some cooking oil. Add the wings and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side. Lower the heat to medium low and cover the wings with a 9×13 foil pan or large melting dome. Cook 12 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Brush with glaze during last few minutes.

  4. Serve with extra glaze.
