Worlds Hottest Wings

Worlds Hottest Wings

Ingredients:

2 pounds chicken wings, cut up Buffalo-style
6 whole sorrano chili peppers
6 whole red chili peppers
10 whole jalapeno peppers
2 cups white wine
1 bottle Tabasco Sauce
1/2 bottle Worcestershire sauce
10 tablespoons Cayenne pepper
10 tablespoons Durkee red-hot sauce
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoons pepper
1/2 cup vinegar
1 fire extinguisher (Optional-Ha!)

Directions:
In a blender, carefully puree the peppers, wine, vinegar and all spices. Caution, the fumes are deadly and wear rubber gloves or your fingers will burn!

Put the puree into a bowl and marinate the wings in the bowl in the fridge for 5 days. After 5 days, carefully remove the wings and broil them until cooked. Usually it's approximately 15 minutes (+/- 5 minutes).

Take the marinade, put it on the stove, add 1/4 cup sugar and heat to a boil. Reduce until thick. Pour over wings and re-broil for about 5 more minutes, serve with soda water for maximum heat effect but keep plenty of ice water handy.

Sweet-Hot Baby Back Ribs

Sweet-Hot Baby Back Ribs

Ingredients
2 tablespoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
3 slabs baby back pork ribs (about 5 1/2 lb.)
2 limes, halved
Sweet-Hot 'Cue Sauce**

Preparation

1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a small bowl.

2. Rinse and pat ribs dry. If desired, remove thin membrane from back of ribs by slicing into it with a knife and then pulling it off. (This will make ribs more tender.)

3. Rub ribs with cut sides of limes, squeezing as you rub. Massage ginger mixture into meat, covering all sides. Wrap ribs tightly with plastic wrap, and place in zip-top plastic freezer bags or a 13- x 9-inch baking dish; seal or cover, and chill 8 hours. Let ribs stand at room temperature 30 minutes before grilling. Remove plastic wrap.

4. Light 1 side of grill, heating to medium-high heat (350° to 400°); leave other side unlit. Place rib slabs over unlit side, stacking 1 on top of the other.

5. Grill, covered with grill lid, 40 minutes. Reposition rib slabs, moving bottom slab to the top, and grill 40 minutes. Reposition 1 more time, moving bottom slab to the top; grill 40 minutes.

6. Lower grill temperature to medium heat (300° to 350°); unstack rib slabs, and place side by side over unlit side of grill. Cook ribs 30 more minutes, basting with half of Sweet-Hot 'Cue Sauce. Remove ribs from grill, and let stand 10 minutes. Cut ribs, slicing between bones. Serve ribs with remaining Sweet-Hot 'Cue Sauce.
