You’re probably thinking…. what. But, sometimes you just need it all at once, you know? Chicken Wings and Pizza are a classic take-out order, and what I need to know is why we haven’t combined them sooner, because holy YUM.
I love a dry rub on a wing, and these familiar pizza-esq flavors are so delicious on a charred-crispy wing. Let’s take it up a notch with a sprinkle of crispy pepperoni, and serve them with a side of warm marinara.
I love the flavor of grilling the wings- and it makes for such an easy clean up! The secret to a crispy wing on the grill is to keep the heat low and slow. If we grill them quickly over high, the fat will burn and not have a chance to render and get crisp.
This blog is done in long term partnership with Char-Griller Grills. All thoughts, recipes, and opinions are my own.
I hope you’re feeling adventurous and ready to get a little chicken-wing-dunked with me with this recipe! Let’s dig in!

Instructions
