Well, let's do something "useful". Here’s a fantastic Hot Wing recipe from LSU Mark from tMB:Fire away
Ingredients
- 2-3 habanero pepper, seeded and chopped (leaves seeds for spicier marinade)
- 3-4 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped (I leave seeds)
- 3-4 serranno peppers, seeded and chopped (I leave seeds)
- 1 1/2 cups soy sauce
- 2-5 good squeezes of honey
- 4 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 -2 tablespoons crushed red pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 scallions, chopped
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2-3 fresh limes juiced
- 2 fresh oranges juiced
- 1/2 stick butter
- 3 pounds chicken wings
Directions
Combine the habanero, japs/serrano peppers, soy sauce, honey, both sugars, cayenne, red pepper, thyme, ginger, garlic and scallions in a blender. Add the vinegar, lime juice and orange juice and blend until smooth.
Place the wings in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours (don't shorten - at least 4 hours).
Heat grill on high and get it as hot as it will go.
Pour marinade in a heavy sauce pan and add half stick of butter. Reduce by 1/3 - 1/2.

Q&A
Q: On this wing recipe, are you keeping the marinade you reduce separate from the marinade on the wings? Most recipes I've seen say to dump excess marinades that have been in contact with uncooked meat.
A: No, pour the marinade from the chicken in a pan with a 1/2 stick of butter. Heat that and reduce by 1/2, then mop that on the wings when they are on the grill.
