Jack Daniel’s BBQ Chicken Wings Recipe

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan combine onion, garlic, and Jack Daniel’s. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 7 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Add ketchup, vinegar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, liquid smoke, pepper, and salt. Mix well and simmer for 20 minutes. Puree in a food processor or blender. At this point, the sauce can be refrigerated for at least 24 hours. You can also use it right away on the wings.
2. Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees. In a large bowl combine flour, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In a small bowl whisk together egg and milk. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, and then roll in the flour mixture. Repeat so that each piece of chicken is double coated. Refrigerate the breaded chicken for 20 minutes.
3. Fry chicken in the hot oil in batches until the outside is nicely browned and the juices run clear (about 5 minutes per batch). The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees. Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all of the chicken is gone. Toss cooked chicken pieces with the BBQ sauce and serve.
