With the big games on today (and what great games they were!), we decided on chicken wings, on our way back from Ft. Worth, a rodeo and some of the finest baby backs I have had from a street vendor/. We had Bbq on the mind too. Anhd here in TX we found ourselves with 70+ degree weather all afternoon. So I broke out some charcoal, some mesquite chunks and got a little fore going in the Webber. I made a rub for the wings consisting of brown sugar, chipotle powder, salish (alderwood smoked sea salt), cumin and garlic powder, some oregano and thyme... they sat a while in this rub until the coals were grey. I also soaked some wood chips and seasoned 1 lbs of shell on jumbo shrimp with little old faithful, old bay seasoning. the wings cooked on indirect heat for 20 mins or so a side. at the end I threw on some additional soaked chips and the shrimp for about 25 or 20 minutes and smoked the heck out of it. by half time of the Giants game we were grinning and suckin down them suckers dipped in a light blue cheese dressing. side buy side with the shrimp which had a home made cocktail, accompanied by traditional carrot and celery. I bought some frank's hot sauce but be didn't touch it... was unnecessary. we had a ll the flavors going on. I'll use it for something else down the road.
1 lbs shrimp - 447 cal
10 wings - 60 cal per wing (we had bout 20 wingettes @ 30 cal per wing) = 600
2 stalk celery - 38 cal
2 carrots - 104 cal
4 TBSP - 160
total calories - 1349
we shared and there is at least one portion left over... I ate more than Cray Cray.
