Elevate your grilling game with these Hot Blackberry BBQ Chicken Wings! Tangy blackberries meet smoky BBQ for a flavor explosion. A touch of heat from jalapenos and a burst of lime create a symphony of summer flavors you won't forget.

Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. (5 minutes)

02

Step

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 a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Mix together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a cup; stir mixture into the sauce. Simmer until slightly thickened and syrupy. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Toss wings with oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss until evenly coated. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Cook wings on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until cooked through. (20-25 minutes)

06

Step

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. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Place grilled wings into a large, clean bowl. Add hot blackberry BBQ sauce and toss until well coated. Serve hot.

For a deeper smoky flavor, use wood chips like hickory or applewood when grilling the wings.
Adjust the amount of jalapenos based on your preferred spice level. Remove the seeds for a milder flavor.
If you don't have a grill, you can bake the wings in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through.
