 Preparation Directions:

Load Big Green Egg with Lump Charcoal and Ignite
Adjust Big Green Egg to 450˚
Allow Big Green Egg to reach temp
In a medium mixing bowl add the following
Chicken Wings, defrosted or fresh
Oil
Tiki Tiki Rub
Mix the above ingredients together well and let sit for 5 minutes, re mix after 5 minutes
Load wings around the middle / outside edge of the Big Green Egg set at 450˚ and close the dome
Cook for 10 Minutes
Carefully open the Big Green Egg (I like to burb mine 2-3 times, then slowly open)
Turn the chicken wings and bring towards the center of the egg and close the dome
Cook for another 10 minutes
Carefully open the Big Green Egg (I like to burb mine 2-3 times, then slowly open)
Turn the chicken wings and start to caramelize the skin
Check temp of wings (be careful not to temp the bone)
Wings will be 165˚ when done
If Wings are not at 165˚
Close the dome and continue to cook for another 5 minutes and check doneness again
If wings are still not done, close the dome and continue to cook in 5 minute increments until desired doneness.
Carefully open the Big Green Egg (I like to burb mine 2-3 times, then slowly open)
Remove wings from the Big Green Egg and place into a clean medium sized bowl
Drizzle with Fire Honey, Cayenne Pepper Sauce and Add the Blue Cheese
Toss the hot wings and sauces until coated and blue cheese starts to melt and get creamy
Top with chopped if desired
Plate the wings and garnish with more chopped green onions
Devour
