Ingredients

2 lb chicken wingettes
3½ cups IPA craft beer, divided
1 Tbs salt
¾ cup ketchup
1/2 cup Sriracha sauce
1 Tbs cider vinegar
2 Tbs soy sauce
1 Tbs fresh ground ginger
1 Tbs cornstarch

Directions

Combine the chicken wings, 3 cups of IPA, and 1 tablespoon of salt in a plastic container and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Drain the wings and lay them out on a sheet pan. Bake until desired doneness… typically for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
In a small saucepan, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of IPA with the ketchup, Sriracha sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer. When the wings are done, toss them with the sauce while hot.
For best results sear the wings on a grill pan or grill to crisp the skin and add a visible char.
