Sunnys Racked Wings With Mustard Bbq Sauce Recipes

SUNNY'S BBQ CHIP WINGS

Steps:

• Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, separate the chicken wings into drummettes and wings, discarding the wing tip joint.
• In a large paper bag add the flour, 2 tablespoons of salt and about 5 grinds of black pepper. In batches, toss the chicken wings in the bag until fully coated with flour. Place the coated wings on the wire rack at room temperature until the flour appears to be invisible or soaked into the skin, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the coating: In a small saute pan over medium-low heat, add the paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder. Toast the spices while tossing constantly to avoid burning until they are fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove the spices from the heat and allow to cool completely. Once cooled add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the sugar. Place in a bowl or paper bag for tossing.
• In a large pot, heat oil until a deep fry thermometer reaches 375 degrees F. Working in batches, add the chicken and fry until cooked through and crispy, 10 to 13 minutes each batch. Remove from oil and immediately add the fried wings to the bowl or paper bag filled with the coating and toss. Serve immediately.

PEACH-MUSTARD BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and boil until almost completely reduced and the mixture looks like wet sand, about 4 minutes. Whisk in both mustards and the jam or preserves. Simmer, whisking, until jam melts, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the bourbon and salt.

SUNNY'S ROOT BEER BBQ WINGS

Steps:

• For the glaze: In a pot on medium-high heat, add the root beer, ketchup, sugar, lime juice, garlic and ginger. Whisk together until the mixture begins to boil and the ketchup and sugar are dissolved into the root beer. Lower to a simmer and when it begins to reduce in volume and thicken, turn off the heat and add the pepper. Allow to steep in the residual heat for 10 minutes, then discard the pepper and stir the glaze.
• For the wings: In a large paper bag, add the flour, cornstarch, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Crimp it shut and gently toss it to mix the contents. In batches, add a few wings and toss them from side to side to fully coat. Remove to a wire rack and allow to rest until the flour soaks into the skin, about 15 minutes. Repeat the process for 2 dry coats. After the second resting period, the wings are ready to fry.
• In a deep fryer or deep heavy pot, add enough oil to fill to about 4 inches. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Add the wings in batches to keep the temperature and fry each batch 12 minutes. Remove the wings to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle immediately with a pinch of salt.
• In batches, add a bit of the glaze to a large bowl and a few wings, then toss them to coat. Remove the wings to a platter, top with a spritz of lime and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and serve.

WINGS 3 WAYS

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat vegetable shortening until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 375 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with a wire rack.
• Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, separate the chicken wings into the drummettes and wings, discarding the wing tip joint.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and black pepper. In a paper bag, shake together flour, cornstarch and 1 tablespoon salt. Place chicken in egg mixture and toss well to coat. Place chicken in batches in the bag of flour mixture. Shake well to coat. Set on wire rack to let coating set, 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the Honey BBQ Sauce and the Spicy Butter Sauce. In a small saucepan, bring the ingredients for the Honey BBQ Sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and cook until sauce has reduced by half, about 12 minutes, stirring frequently. In another saucepan, bring the ingredients for the Spicy Butter Sauce to a simmer. Remove from heat and let basil infuse in butter for at least 15 minutes. Remove basil.
• When oil is at the right temperature, add chicken, working in batches, and fry until cooked through and crispy, about 13 minutes. Season chicken with salt then immediately toss, taking turns with batches, in the Honey BBQ sauce, or the Spicy Butter Sauce or sprinkle with the lemon and lime zest.
• Serve immediately.
