I made root beer-glazed chicken wings when I was out at the cabin, soooo good.
Recipe:
2 lbs Chicken wings (I used drummettes)
3 cans of Root Beer
2 tsp. butter
a diced shallot or two (small onion would be good)
a couple diced garlic cloves
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Heat the root beer, butter, shallots, garlic in a medium saucepan at medium-high heat until it gets a glaze consistency. Stir OFTEN, it will burn easily.
Cover the chicken wings in the oil and salt and pepper. BBQ those bitches for about twenty minutes turning often (as long as they lift from the grill easily). During the last five minutes brush the glaze ALL over the wings.
It served eight people as an appetizer when I did it.
