Step 1: Melt the butter, add in the onion and garlic and allow to cook slowly for about 3 minutes to soften.
Step 2: Add in the rest of the ingredients, except the chicken wings, and bring to a boil.
Step 3: As soon as you see bubbles, drop the temperature and allow the sauce to simmer gently.
Step 4: It takes about 30 minutes for the sauce the thicken nicely. Let cool in the fridge till slightly warm.
Step 5: Put the chicken into a large bowl and add in most of the sauce, reserving around a ¼ cup for basting later.
Step 6: Make sure that the chicken is completely covered and then chill for at least an hour. I marinated mine for 2 hours.
Step 7: Light your barbecue using coals on just one side.
Step 8: Place your chicken on the other side of the barbecue and cover.
Step 9: Cook for around 40 minutes turning the chicken halfway.
Step 10: In the meantime, pour marinade in a small saucepan, and cook on a simmer for at least 15 minutes. This will kill any bacteria from the raw chicken.
Step 11: Now uncover the chicken and move it closer to the heat.
Step 12: Cook for a further 20 minutes, basting with the extra sauce every 5-10 minutes.
Step 13: You can also do them in an air fryer. Just follow fryer directions.
Step 14: The chicken is ready when it reaches 165 degrees.
