[ RECIPE ] Hot Barbecue Wings

Source:   Leith’s ‘How To Cook’ book

Once in a while, after a lot of cardio and not missing a single gym session, it’s really important for me to indulge in something that may not be the healthiest but certainly the tastiest of eats. These Hot Barbecue Wings are so moreish, hot or cold, it’s important to only make a limited amount before it’s too late to stop!

This is one of those dishes I like to make from time to time that I’ve never got bored of. It was one of the first times I realised I can make food that’s tastier from a home recipe than from the local pub’s menu. These wings definitely can’t be reserved for a one-off occasion such as that one-off Summer BBQ, they’re for any time you feel like indulging, which is important to do (in moderation of course!).
