These wings are really easy to make. They are coated in a little flour, baking powder, and spices and then baked until crispy. To finish them off, they are coated in bbq sauce and returned to the oven for 5 minutes. Eat them plain or dip them in Ranch or blue cheese for an awesome appetizer or meal.

Bourbon and Peach Flavor Combination

The slightly sweet, caramel-like flavor of bourbon pairs perfectly with the sweetness of peaches. It is one of my favorite summer flavor combinations.

Ingredients Needed

  • Chicken Wings
  • All-purpose flour– Just a little to coat the wings.
  • Baking Powder– helps the wings get crispy.
  • Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper- for seasoning.
  • BBQ Sauce– I like to use Stubbs. Use whichever sauce is your favorite.
  • Ripe Peach– use frozen if you don’t have fresh.
  • Bourbon– use your favorite. I really like cooking with Maker’s Mark. It has a nice, smooth flavor.

How To Make Bourbon Peach BBQ Wings

  1. Cut the wings apart and discard the wing tip.
  2. Pat them dry and toss them with flour, baking powder, and seasonings.
  3. Arrange them skin side down on a greased, rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  4. While the wings are in the oven, make the sauce. First simmer the bbq sauce and peaches in a saucepan. Then add the bourbon and simmer a few more minutes. Let cool some and then place in a blender and blend until smooth.
  5. Brush the wings with the sauce and bake 5 more minutes.

Recipe Tip

If you have a wire rack that you can place inside your rimmed baking sheet, you can bake the wings on it and they will get crispier than if you place them directly on the baking sheet. I don’t think it matters that much for these wings since they are coated in sauce.

    Im not a great wings fan. But, think sauce sounds wonderful, would also be great with drum sticks and chicken strips. Going to try😊
