Hot Blackberry BBQ Chicken Wings image

Blackberries offer a change on the traditional BBQ sauce for these wings. A little heat from the jalapenos, freshness from the limes, and a hint of smoke flavor. Grill these up and enjoy that summer feel.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 ounces fresh blackberries
¼ cup ketchup
¼ cup water
3 medium fresh jalapeno peppers, sliced
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
2 medium limes, juiced
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
2 pounds chicken wings
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Combine blackberries, ketchup, 1/4 cup water, jalapenos, vinegar, honey, garlic, and liquid smoke in a small saucepan. Stir in lime juice and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
  • Mix together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a cup; stir mixture into the sauce. Simmer until slightly thickened and syrupy, about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Toss wings with oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss until evenly coated.
  • Cook wings on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • While the wings are cooking, pour sauce through a fine mesh strainer set over a container. Tap the strainer with a spoon while straining to squeeze out the last remaining drops of sauce from the residue.
  • Place grilled wings into a large, clean bowl. Add hot blackberry BBQ sauce and toss until well coated. Serve hot.
