Our absolute favorite. Divine intervention is the only explanation for our chef coming up with this. These Chicken Wings are marinated in strawberry vinegar with honey and herbs making them buttery soft with a hint of sweetness. Create a fiery contrast by using our hottest chili sauce. This super tasty recipe once again proves that a good fruit vinegar makes an excellent base for a marinade. Naturally you can also put your chicken wings straight on the BBQ, but these Hot ’n Sweet Chicken Wings are a whole different ballgame. The accompanying sauce features the notorious Ghost Chili – the hottest pepper in the world according to the Guinness Book of Records. There is now an even hotter pepper available, but trust us, this one will be more than hot enough …
