Tips and Tricks

Here’s the Deal Spice Co. – Wing Blend has very little salt, 10% per JAR.
The reasoning behind the Salt toss and sit, is to draw out the moisture in the skin of the chicken wings, as the water is pulled out at the same time the salt will dissolve and fill in the pores of the skin – this will allow the salt flavor to penetrate the wing itself, giving the Wings a well-rounded salt seasoning, along with a Crisp and Crunchy Skin.
While the Salt has pulled the Moisture from the skin, when adding the Wing Blend and allowing it to sit, the moisture will absorb into the Spice seasoning creating a ‘Crust’ which is key when making Dry Rub Wings. Also, why the seasoning changes color.
The Roasting or Cooling Rack used for this recipe is to allow the heat and air circulation to evenly cook the product. You will see this method on many of our recipes, during the preparation, cooking and cooling of products.
The Temperature on the Oven method is set to a higher temperature, Due to the In-direct Heat Cooking Method.
The Temperature on the Grill method is set to a lower temperature, Due to the Direct Heat Cooking Method.
