Tamarind BBQ wings & Spring Rolls

[cpaysonc]

My wife saw a Tamarind Heads sauce mention, intrigued, looked it up and adapted it to our (or my) taste, as chili pepper tears me up. Sauce was as follows, and extraordinary:

Flappers were dry rubbed with Korean seasoning salt (90% NaCl, 10% MSG), white pepper, super finely ground black pepper, baking powder, garlic powder, scant celery salt.

Weber 22" kettle with a Slow n Sear. (Spider Grill controller in pic not in use). Wings on at 400F.

Sauced at roughly 40 minutes in, sticky caramelization looking good!

Paired with bastardized Vietnamese spring rolls, kimchi style Sriracha rice vinegar cukes and a delightful peanut dipping sauce. Nice way to spend an evening!

Cook on those wings look perfect .
OK , what's the cart / base on that kettle ?

 

[cpaysonc]

Appreciate the kind words!

The cart is a kettle leg replacement from Spider Grills, great improvement over stock! Super high quality casters too.

I like that a lot . Do you have the one that's the stock height ?
Looking at the one for the 26 " .
The stock ash pan fits no problem ?
I like the way it mounts too . No holes drilled correct ?

Just...WOW! That looks amazing! If I wanted to advertise chicken wings, I'd use these pics!

And Thanks for the sauce recipe!

They lower the kettle a wee bit. If you have a 22" standard setup I believe you need an adapter ring or something. In my case, I have the Venom temp controller that allowed for an easy fit. It mounts to the original leg holes. According to the website, a 26" inch kettle requires zero modifications or adapters. No drilling in either scenario. I assume the stock ash pan is not an issue with the 26". Here's a closer look at how it attaches. Rock solid!
