Tangy Gluten-Free Barbecue Chicken Wings
MAKES 16 TO 24 PIECES
Score big with this popular party fare, ideal for Super Sunday. This easy recipe can be made ahead and reheated just before the defensive ends line up on your couch. (Prepare the sauce several days ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Bake the chicken wings the day before your event.) The vinegar in this flavorful sauce acts as a tenderizer, making the meat melt in your mouth. For gluten-free Teriyaki Chicken Wings, click here.
2 pounds chicken wings, cut at the joint,

¼ cup cider vinegar*
⅔ cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar, packed
1½ tablespoons gluten-free Worcestershire sauce

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash wing pieces and pat dry. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet.
2. Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl. Remove ½ cup sauce and refrigerate to serve with wings. Brush wings with some of the remaining sauce.
3. Put wings in preheated oven and bake 20 to 30 minutes, basting several times with remaining sauce.
4. Set wings under broiler for 3 to 4 minutes to make crisp and brown. Serve warm with reserved sauce.

Hi Pat and Ksehn, this barbecue sauce would be great on hamburgers, steaks and ribs - -yum-yum! As for replacing the cider vinegar, I would try orange juice instead. You could also use lemon juice, but it might make this recipe quite tangy. Enjoy! Beth Hillson, Food Editor, LWO

What can be used in place of apple cider vinegar....to avoid sulphites?

I wonder if this recipe could be used for other meats like hamburgers or steaks or ribs?
