Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup hot sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat grill for high heat.
  2. Lightly oil the grill grate. Cook the wings 8 to 12 minutes on each side, until juices run clear. The larger pieces will take slightly longer to cook.
  3. Melt the butter in a saucepan, and mix in the hot sauce, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
  4. Place wings in a large container with a secure lid. Pour sauce over the wings, and seal. Shake wings with the sauce until thoroughly coated.
