Ingredients for Barbecued Buzzard Wings

  • Chicken Wings
  • Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • Cinnamon
  • Vegetable Oil
  • Water
  • Light Brown Sugar
  • Mustard Powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste)
  • Onions
  • Garlic Clove
  • Horseradish
  • Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

How to Make Barbecued Buzzard Wings

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup ketchup, ½ cup apple cider vinegar, ¼ cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons molasses, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently.
  2. Continue stirring until the molasses is fully dissolved and the sauce has slightly thickened (about 5-7 minutes). Set aside.
  3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add chicken wings and boil for 7 minutes.
  4. Remove wings from boiling water, drain well, and pat completely dry with paper towels.
  5. Pour the barbecue sauce into a large bowl.
  6. Add the chicken wings to the bowl, ensuring each wing is thoroughly coated in the sauce.
  7. Arrange the coated wings in a single layer in a shallow baking dish.
  8. Pour any remaining sauce over the wings.
  9. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and the sauce is caramelized and slightly sticky.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
