Ingredients For Blackstone Chicken Wings

• Chicken wings – Grab some chicken wings, either fresh or frozen, to use in this easy recipe. You will want them to be cut into drumettes and wings.
• BBQ rub – We love our Gimme Some Grilling BBQ Rub, but you can also make a homemade BBQ chicken rub or use whatever seasoning blend you want! Parmesan garlic, garlic butter herbs, spicy sweet — don’t be afraid to get creative.
• Butter – Salted and unsalted butter will both work in this recipe.
• Olive oil – Use olive oil to baste the outside of the wings. This will not only help the seasoning stick to the wings, but it will also help the skin crisp up. You can use any light tasting oil with a high smoke point that you have on hand.
• Dipping sauce – Whether it’s BBQ sauce or classic buffalo sauce, you can use whatever dipping sauce you like with these crispy Blackstone chicken wings. Feel free to toss your tender wings in the sauce before serving.

How to Cut Chicken Wings

If you have a whole chicken wing you will want to separate the flat and drumette.

First, slip the chicken wing over so the skin side is down and you can see the joints easily. Locate the first ridge between the drums and wingette portions with your fingers.

Place your knife beside this ridge and parallel to the long side of the drumette. Cut all the way through to separate. Your knife should easily cut through it.

Next, find the second ridge between the wingette and tip portion. Cut all the way through this joint and discard of the tip.

How To Make Blackstone Chicken Wings

Pat wings dry with paper towels and place the wings into a large mixing bowl.

Add olive oil and dry rub to the bowl and stir until all the wings are well coated with the BBQ rub.

Melt butter on the griddle and place the chicken wings directly on top. Let the chicken brown for 2-3 minutes.

Flip the wings and toss with butter to coat. Allow chicken to brown on the opposite side for about 2-3 minutes.

Reduce heat on the griddle to medium and cover with cooking dome for 10-15 more minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove from the grill, and serve with your favorite dipping sauces.

This incredible wing recipe is sure to be a hit! Whip up a batch for your next party or even a super easy supper dish with your family.

Storage And Reheating

Fridge: Store leftover chicken wings in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Freezer: Freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet before storing in an airtight container or freezer bag. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.

To reheat leftover wings, bake on a sheet pan in the oven for about 10 minutes at 350 degrees. The air fryer is also a great way to reheat wings. Preheat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for about 10 minutes. Don’t forget to spray the chicken with cooking spray and place them in a single layer to make them crispy.

If you need to use the microwave, place wings on a damp paper towel lined plate and then top them with another damp paper towel. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes. We don’t recommend this method because the wings will not crisp up.

How To Serve Chicken Wings

Don’t forget the sauce! Some creamy Ranch Dressing Dip is a classic but I love tangy blue cheese dressing too. Of course, Barbecue Sauce or Honey Mustard pairs wonderfully with Blackstone griddle chicken wings too.

Serve this dish alongside other favorites like Smoked Potato Skins or Grilled Foil Packet Potatoes. It’s great with some BBQ Baked Beans and Smoked Mac And Cheese, too.

Classic sides like celery sticks and carrots just like at your favorite wing spot are always a great idea, too!
