You cook the wings for 1 hour at 400?! WAY to long!

@Chuck, No, not too long. You have to start with a cold grill and cold chicken. I've done wings this way for a couple of years. They've come out perfect every time.

Nope! If you read the recipe, it calls to put the wings on a cold grill. My grill takes at least 20-25 minutes to get all the way up to 400 degrees. They cook at 400 for around 30ish minutes, five or take. Also depends on how dry the skin is and how crispy you like it. You can pull them whenever you want.
