BARBECUE WINGS CHARLOTTE-STYLE

24 chicken wings
2 cups apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt

Put chicken wings in medium pot. Add the other ingredients and bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Immediately reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the wings until just cooked through, about 25 minutes.

Let wings rest in pot with sauce overnight in refrigerator or in an ice-filled cooler.

Grill wings over medium-high heat until nicely browned, about 8-10 minutes. Turn wings a few times during grilling, and baste them liberally with sauce from pot. Serve immediately.

Servings: 6-8
