Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs chicken wing drumettes/drumsticks
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

  • Set your grill to about medium heat and brush the grates until they are clean. 
  • To make the rosemary-infused bbq sauce, whisk the ketchup, butter, Worteceshire sauce, maple syrup, chili powder and rosemary in a small saucepot.
  • Heat the rosemary-infused sauce over a medium-high flame; once it is boiling, decrease the heat to medium-low and cook it for 5-7 minutes, periodically stirring until it thickens up. 
  • Whisk the kosher salt, pepper, lemon pepper, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl.
  • Pat the chicken wing drummettes dry with paper towels and place them into a large bowl. 
  • Add the olive oil to the chicken wing drummettes, toss to coat, then generously apply the seasoning blend and toss to combine.
  • Place the wings onto the grill in an even layer, cover them and cook for 30 minutes. 
  • Baste the chicken wings with the rosemary-infused bbq sauce, place the lid back onto the grill, and cook for another 30 minutes. 
  • Continue to baste the wings with the sauce until they are slightly charred and reach your preferred doneness. 
  • Toss the chicken wing drummettes with any remaining rosemary-infused bbq sauce. 
  • Serve and enjoy!
