Hatch Chile Hot Wings

Ingredients:

For wings

4 pounds chicken wings, cut into drums and flats

1 cup Stubb’s Green Chile Anytime Sauce

1 lime, zested and juiced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup brown sugar

For dipping sauce

1 cup sour cream (can use regular, low-fat or fat-free)

1/4 cup Stubb’s Green Chile Anytime Sauce

Zest of one lime

1/2 cup freshly chopped cilantro

For garnish

Thinly sliced jalapeños

Crumbled queso fresco

Lime wedges

Fresh cilantro leaves

Cooking Instructions:

For the chicken wings

In a small bowl combine the Stubb’s Green Chile Anytime Sauce with the garlic, brown sugar, lime zest and juice and whisk. Place the chicken wings in a zip-top plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the wings, seal the bag and let marinate for several hours.

For the dipping sauce

Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and stir together. Chill until ready to use.

Grill the wings

Heat the grill to a medium high heat, about 400° degrees, and arrange the wings on the grates so they don’t fall through. Cook until wings are crispy and cooked through, turning once or twice. About 15-20 minutes. Watch for hot spots on the grill, since the marinade has brown sugar, it may have a tendency to flame.

Transfer wings to a platter and sprinkle with jalapeño slices, queso fresco, lime wedges and cilantro. Serve with dipping sauce.

 

“Short-cut” Pulled Pork

 

Ingredients

2 tablespoons Stubb’s Bar-B-Q Spice Rub

2 tablespoons granulated garlic or garlic powder

2 teaspoons black pepper

About 1 ½ teaspoons salt

4 pounds pork butt, or “country-style” ribs

1 bottle Stubb’s Moppin’ Sauce

3 cups wood chips, or 4 to 5 chunks, soaked (optional)

 

Cooking Instructions

In a small bowl, combine the barbecue seasoning, garlic, pepper, and salt. If using pork butt, chip it into thick strips or chunks, about the size of a small fist. Place the pork in a large disposable aluminum foil pan. Coat the pork on all sides with Stubb’s Bar-B-Q Spice Rub.

 

Prepare a grill for indirect cooking. For a charcoal grill, when the coals are ashed over, rake or spread them out in one part of the grill so the food can cook to the side and not directly over the coals. (For a gas grill, fire up the burners on one part of the grill, so the food can cook to the side of the heat but not directly over it.) Cover the grill and bring it to around 250°F. Drain and add half of the wood (if using) for smoking.

Set the pan of pork over indirect heat and cook in the covered grill for about 3 hours. After the first 10 minutes of cooking, baste the pork with Moppin’ Sauce.  To ensure even cooking, set an over thermometer next to the pan, also over indirect heat. Every hour, check it, baste it with the Moppin’ Sauce and add more fuel and wood as needed to maintain a smoky 250°F heat. The pork is done when the pieces are browned on the outside but tender on the inside. When the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F to 175°F, it’s cooked enough to be sliced.
