Fire up the Traeger or your favorite grill that's currently residing on your deck, and break out the chicken wings. These sweet and spicy grilled chicken wings are packed full of bold Korean flavor with a liberal dose of Hell's Kitchen Under The Sea rub by Spiceology!

Traeger Spicy Grilled Chicken Wings

We are kind of obsessed with chicken wings here. Sweet ones, spicy ones, traditional buffalo wings, we even make our own Buffalo sauce, we love them so much. Sometimes I want wings with a kick that aren't your typical spicy wings though, and these were the perfect solution.

I've been a big fan of Spiceology since they were known as Spiceologist. They've grown quite a bit since then, and if you watched the latest iteration of Iron Chef, you probably noticed tons of Spiceology spices in Kitchen Stadium. There's a good reason for that. They are great spices.

One of their specialties is their many collaborations with various celebrity chefs and pitmasters, and we've got a ton of them we're tried over the years.

How To Make This Recipe

This is just the overview so you can see what you're actually getting into here. When you are cooking, you'll want to use the full recipe at the bottom of the page.

1. Preheat – We're shooting for 375° for these wings.
2. Dry, oil, and season – Make sure your wings are totally dry. I actually like to leave them on an uncovered baking sheet in the fridge overnight and salt them a little. That's totally optional, but whatever you do just make sure the skin is dry dry dry. You'll avoid rubbery skin that way. Brush the chicken wings with oil and coat with rub.
3. Grill – Place the wings in a single layer on the grill and shut the lid. Grill for 20-25 minutes, flip, and then grill another 20 minutes.
4. Sauce and eat – Toss the wings with your spicy Korean sauce and enjoy!
