Steps:

• Heat a charcoal or gas grill; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat. Leave one side of the grill cooler for indirect cooking.
• Put the wings on the cool side of the grill. Cover the grill, and cook, checking and turning once or twice, until most of the fat has been rendered and the wings are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the wings cook, combine 1/3 cup olive oil, 3 tablespoons chopped chipotles in adobo (include some of the sauce), 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
