One of the greatest fingers foods, in my opinion, are wings. They are perfect for tailgating, parties and everything in between. With halloween around the corner, these Bat Wings are the perfect freaky treat to serve your guests.  They taste like chicken, but are they? Grilled to perfection,  these hot wings dyed in black food coloring have traditional bbq wing flavors with crispy skin. 

Grilled Wing Tips:

• Grill on indirect heat to avoid the skin from burning
• Grill at a higher temperature to get the skin crispy

Step 1: Black marinade 

Start with about 2 pounds of whole 3 piece chicken wings. Toss them in olive oil then season with Dad’s All Purpose seasoning. 

Next, in a bowl, add hot sauce, soy sauce, honey, bbq sauce and black food dye.  Mix the ingredients together.  Place the seasoned chicken wings in a ziplock bag and pour in the black marinade.  Close it up and make sure to cover everything in the sauce.

Set it in the fridge for at least 1 hour and allow it to marinate and soak in the color.

Step 2: How to grill the perfect chicken wings

Preheat the grill to 375 degrees and set it for indirect heat. 

Place the marinated bat wings on the grill and cook them for 45-60 minutes or until the wings internal temperature reaches 180 degrees.  Flip the wings half way through to ensure an even cook throughout. 

Serve with some BBQ or hot sauce for dipping and enjoy!
