Old Bay Wings

Old Bay Wings

I was born and raised in Maryland, home of Old Bay Seasoning. Old Bay is typically used on seafood (crabs & shrimp) but is SO good on virtually everything else. Chicken, french fries, baked potato, deviled eggs, macaroni & cheese (trust me on this), popcorn, you name it! It’s hard to describe, but it’s a little bit spicy, a little bit salty, and a whole lotta delicious.

I’ve perfected my Old Bay wing recipe over the past few years. It’s so easy – all you need is wings, Old Bay, an oven and a grill. These wings are perfect any time of year. Even though we live in Colorado, we are able to grill out year-round on our deck.

Served with cole slaw (the Barefoot Contessa’s recipe is my favorite) and a cold Heavy Seas Pale Ale (brewed in Maryland), dinner doesn’t get much better.

Ingredients:

Wings (I buy a bag of frozen wings at Costco)

Old Bay

Directions:

Heat oven to 350°.  Place frozen wings on a cookie sheet and bake for approximately 20 minutes.

Put wings in a bowl and cover generously with Old Bay, using as much or as little as you wish.

Heat grill (we use a gas grill) to about 350°-400°.  Place wings on grill and grill for approximately 6 minutes. Flip wings over and grill for another 6 minutes. Remove from grill and sprinkle more Old Bay on the wings.  Serve with ranch or bleu cheese dressing.

ENJOY a little taste of Maryland!
