Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a large glass bowl, whisk together the dark brown sugar, dark soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and honey hickory barbecue sauce until the sugar is completely dissolved. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Add black food coloring gel, one drop at a time, stirring until you achieve a deep, even black hue. Remember, a little goes a long way! (2 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Using a fork, pierce the chicken wings liberally on both sides to allow the marinade to penetrate deeply. (5 minutes)

04

Step
1 hrs

Add the wings to the sauce, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor infusion. (1 hour - overnight)

05

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (15 minutes)

06

Step
1 hrs

Transfer the chicken wings and all of the marinade to a large baking dish, arranging the wings in a single layer. (5 minutes)

07

Step
5 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork, approximately 1 hour. For perfectly cooked wings, an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (1 hour)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika to the marinade.
If the wings start to get too dark during baking, tent the baking dish with foil to prevent burning.
Serve these wings hot with a side of creamy blue cheese dressing or a spicy aioli for dipping.

    I used smoked paprika in the rub to give it more depth!

    My kids loved these! They thought they were so cool and spooky.

    I marinated the wings overnight, and they were incredibly tender and flavorful. Will definitely make these again!

  • Terrence Glover

    These were so much easier to make than I thought they would be. A perfect Halloween treat!

  • Jaleel Schuppe

    The sauce is amazing! I even used it on ribs the next day.

  • Genoveva Mckenziejacobs

    Next time, I think I'll try grilling these instead of baking them for a smoky flavor.

  • Emilia Bednar

    Be careful with the black food coloring – a little goes a long way! I added too much at first and had to adjust the other ingredients.

  • Don Okon

    These wings were a huge hit at my Halloween party! The color was so striking, and the flavor was fantastic.
