Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings (drumettes and flats)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the Buffalo BBQ Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

For Serving:

  • Celery sticks
  • Carrot sticks
  • Ranch or blue cheese dressing

Instructions

1. Fire Up the Arteflame Grill

Start by preparing the Arteflame grill. Stack firewood over three oil-soaked paper napkins, light the napkins, and let the grill heat for about 20 minutes.

2. Season the Chicken Wings

In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Ensure that all the wings are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

3. Grill the Chicken Wings

Place the seasoned wings on the hot center grate of the Arteflame grill, searing each side for about 3-4 minutes until they develop a nice char. Move the wings to the outer flat cooktop griddle and continue grilling them for another 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wings are fully cooked and crispy. The internal temperature of the wings should reach 165°F.

4. Make the Buffalo BBQ Sauce

While the wings are grilling, prepare the Buffalo BBQ sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the hot sauce, barbecue sauce, melted butter, honey, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.

5. Toss the Wings in Sauce

Once the wings are done grilling, remove them from the grill and place them in a large bowl. Pour the Buffalo BBQ sauce over the wings and toss until they are well coated.

6. Serve

Serve the wings hot, garnished with celery and carrot sticks on the side. Pair with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

Tips for Perfect Barbecue Buffalo Wings

  • Control the Heat: If you prefer milder wings, reduce the amount of hot sauce or cayenne pepper. For extra spicy wings, add more hot sauce or a dash of your favorite hot pepper flakes.
  • Crisp the Skin: Grilling the wings on the center grate for a good char and then moving them to the flat cooktop ensures crispy skin without drying out the meat.
  • Toss Immediately: Toss the wings in the sauce while they’re still hot from the grill so they absorb all the flavors.

Conclusion

These Barbecue Buffalo Wings combine the best of both worlds—smoky barbecue flavors with the tangy heat of buffalo sauce. Grilled to perfection on the Arteflame, these wings are juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor. Perfect for sharing at parties or enjoying on a casual night in!

Variations

  1. Extra Spicy Buffalo Wings: Add a tablespoon of sriracha or increase the cayenne pepper in the seasoning for a spicier kick.
  2. Honey Garlic BBQ Wings: Replace hot sauce with honey and garlic for a sweeter, garlicky version.
  3. Teriyaki Buffalo Wings: Add a tablespoon of teriyaki sauce to the Buffalo BBQ sauce for a sweet and tangy twist.
  4. Lemon Pepper Buffalo Wings: Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning over the wings before grilling for a bright, zesty flavor.
  5. Buffalo Ranch Wings: Drizzle ranch dressing over the wings after tossing them in Buffalo BBQ sauce for extra creaminess.
