Kosmos Q Lemon Pepper Air Fryer Dry Wings

I was craving good lemon pepper flavor. Not mild lemon pepper flavor, either. I wanted a punch of flavor. I wanted my lips to pucker. And I wanted my tongue to burn. When I made a batch of Kosmos Q Lemon Pepper air fryer wings I was not shy with the seasoning. Seasoned up front. Seasoned on the back end. And devoured in no time!

Kosmos Q Lemon Pepper Air Fryer Dry Wings

Flavorful Crispy Skin

I love air fryer wings for two reasons. First, the skin gets nice and crispy. Second, they’re easy. Ok, three reasons. They don’t dry out either. You have to be careful seasoning your wings before you put them into the air fryer, though. That high heat can burn any seasoning that has sugar in it. Or garlic. Things like that. So be careful with it. Fortunately, you don’t have to worry with these Kosmos Q Lemon Pepper air fryer wings. The seasoning can handle it. So load up!

Croix Valley Hickory Barbecue Dry Wings

My wife said that her first bite of these Croix Valley Hickory Barbecue Dry Wings made her think of her favorite BBQ potato chips. There’s no mistaking the fantastic flavor of this seasoning. It’s really good and very well balanced. If you’re looking for the flavor of BBQ chicken (or really good BBQ chips!) you’re in luck. We both enjoyed the heck out of these wings.

Croix Valley Hickory Barbecue Dry Wings

Great BBQ Flavor

I keep my Croix Valley hickory barbecue dry wings simple. I cook them first, and usually without any seasoning on them. I’ll add a bit of salt if I’m cooking them on a deep fryer or grill. But, I don’t add anything else, specially not something that might burn (like seasonings that contain sugar).

Dry Wings Are A Favorite

After the wings are done, and while they’re still hot and a bit oily, I toss them in seasoning. That’s when the wings and the seasoning are going to come together the best. If you wait until the wings cool the seasoning won’t stick as well. Also, make sure you use a quality seasoning.

Dill Pickle Dry Wings using the Vortex

For my money, nothing adds great cooked-outdoors flavor like a Vortex. It’s definitely one of my favorite tools for making perfect wings, time and time again. Today I made a batch of delicious dill pickle dry wings using the Vortex. Easy, with crunchy skin and moist meat, these wings pack in the dill pickle flavor from start to finish. You’re not going to be hunting for that great pucker-up dill pickle flavor in these wings, it’s everywhere!

Keep The Shy On The Sly

Load up on the dill pickle seasoning when you make some dill pickle dry wings using the Vortex. From start to finish. Pour it on. You cannot make these wings ‘wrong’ other than to not add enough dill pickle flavor. And make the dipping sauce, too. No ranch or blue cheese here. Add more dill pickle flavor. It’s a party.

Instructions

For the creamy dill pickle dipping sauce

  • Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.

For the wings

  • Place the wings into a large resealable container or baggie.
  • Add the oil and half of the seasoning. Seal and shake to coat well.
  • Refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • Place the Vortex into the center of your grill. Open the bottom vents on your grill by 1/3, while keeping the top vent open completely.
  • Light a charcoal chimney full of charcoal. Alternatively, you can fill your Vortex with charcoal and light them inside the unit.
  • Let the charcoal get fully ashed over and add to the Vortex.
  • Add the chicken. For the flats have the skin side up, and for the drumettes keep the meaty part away from the fire.
  • Close the grill and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Rotate the lid 90 degrees and cook for another 15 minutes.
  • Flip the wings. Rotate the lid another 90 degrees and cook 15 more minutes.
  • Check if the wings are as crispy as you like. If not, rotate the lid another 90 degrees and cook another 15 minutes.
  • Transfer wings to a bowl and toss with more of the seasoning.

Notes

I’ve not found that rotating the grill has an affect on how great this wings turn out. So don’t sweat it if you forget to do it.

Buffalo Wild Wings Buffalo Dry Wings

Oh yum. Buffalo seasoning. Just the right amount of classic flavors, with a hint of butter. In a powder! Woo hoo! Boy, this is finger-licking good stuff, here. I’m a huge fan of ‘dry’ wings. These Buffalo Wild Wings Buffalo dry wings (try saying that 10 times fast!) are amazingly great and definitely one of my favorite dusted wings. If you’ve never tried dry wings, now is the time. Honestly, I hadn’t heard of them until just a few years ago and now I make or order them all of the time.

A Good Seasoning for all Seasons

Buffalo Wild Wings Buffalo seasoning is definitely not just for chicken wings, although there’s no doubting that it’s spectacular on them! Sprinkle it on popcorn. Crackers. Grilled chicken. Burgers. Anything that needs a buttery Buffalo kick.

Bloody Mary Dry Wings

I’ve been to quite a number of Pepper Palace stores over the years. My rule is if I’m anywhere near one, I’m stopping. And I’m backing up the truck on sauces and seasonings. My wife loves a great Bloody Mary now and then, so last time we were at the Pepper Palace store at the Island in Sevierville, TN, we picked up a jar of their Bloody Mary seasoning. Heck yeah, this stuff makes for a great Bloody Mary. But, oh me, does it ever go good on wings! If you love dry wings with a wonderful savory flavor, you’re about to have some truly yummy wings. Celery seed, paprika, a little cayenne and a few other spices make this a seasoning to remember. Get some!

Bloody Mary Dry Wings

One Bite Will Convince You

If you’re not a believer in dry wings, Bloody Mary dry wings will change your mind in one bite. Or one sniff. As soon as you open the jar and start sprinkling it on hot just-cooked wings, you’ll smell the wonderful combination of spices.

Pepper Palace makes a ton of great sauces and seasonings, not just for wings. Find a store near you and spend an hour or two wandering the shelves. They always have an area where you can sample sauces and spices, too. It’s like flavor heaven. Instead, if there’s not one near you, take a road trip (it’ll be worth it) or order online.

Air Fryer Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Seasoning Dry Wings

Yer derned tootin’ I was heavy handed when I seasoned these air fryer Frank’s RedHot Buffalo seasoning dry wings. I love this seasoning. I am never shy with how much I use. These wings made for the perfect lunch. Dry wings rock. If you’ve never tried them, you should. The right seasoning on a wing can make for a wonderful eating experience. I’ll put dry wings up against any wet wings any day of the week. They’re both great.

Bring the Flavor. And More.

These air fryer Frank’s RedHot Buffalo seasoning dry wings start out with a bit of a heat when you take a bite. Right up front. Oh, it’s not overly spicy. Not at all. Just a nice little kick to let you know it’s there.

Then comes the flavor. And lots of it. Garlic. Cayenne. And I swear butter. This is like having a Buffalo wing without having sauce all over your hands and face. Instead, well.. you’ll have seasoning all over your hands and face! Still a win win!

If you want (and you do), don’t be afraid to triple-season your wings. Once before cooking (just a little). Then toss them in more seasoning after cooking (a good dose). And finally, sprinkle them with some more (another good dose). You’ll thank me!

5 Salt 5 Pepper Air Fryer Dry Wings

Oh, me. These 5 Salt and 5 Pepper air fryer dry wings are why I am such a big fan of un-sauced wings. Sure, you can make these and still sauce them. And you should. But do yourself a favor and try them dry. They’ll make a believer out of you.

Packed with flavor

The 5 Salt and 5 Pepper seasoning from Kroger is packed with flavor. So, you ask yourself, really? Are there really 5 different kinds of salt and 5 different kinds of pepper in it? Yes! Here’s proof. The salts: sea, pink Himalayan, Cypress white, French grey, and fleur de sel. The peppers: cayenne, chili, black, red and green bell. All combine for a decidedly different taste that hits every part of your tongue. And makes it tingle!

5 Salt 5 Pepper Air Fryer Dry Wings

Be heavy-handed!

Do not be shy with the seasoning when it comes time to make your 5 Salt 5 Pepper Air Fryer Dry Wings. Seasoning them good and let them dry brine in the fridge for 30 minutes before cooking them. That’ll help get some of fantastic salty pepperiness deep inside, making each bite completely incredible. Afterward, season them even more after they’re cooked up crispy hot.

Da Kine Hawaiian Original Dry Rub Seasoning Wings

The best things about dry wings are the super-crunchy skin and the wonderful combination of flavors. Although you can get great flavor in a wet wing, the skin doesn’t like to stay crunchy too long in the sauce. About half the wings I make are dry. Just like with wet wings, the combinations are almost endless. Today I made some Da Kine Hawaiian Original Dry Rub Seasoning wings in my air fryer. They were truly enjoyable.

Da Kine Hawaiian Original Dry Rub Seasoning Wings

Say Aloha To Greatness

Da Kine Hawaiian Original Dry Rub is a wonderful combination of saltiness along with hints of garlic, lemon pepper and coffee. Yep, coffee. It’s that essence of coffee that really adds amazing depth to these wings. I couldn’t get enough of the seasoning. I liked it so much that I seasoned my wings three times. Once before cooking. Again after cooking. And then again after plating.

You can make dry wings using any technique you like. Just grab a bottle of seasoning and got nuts with it!

Sweet Peeper Air Fryer Dry Wings

The air fryer is my go-to tool for making fantastic dry wings. They’re so simple, so easy, but oh so delicious. Today, I made a little batch of Sweet Peeper air fryer dry wings for my lunch. And I was happy. Heck, I was more than happy. Oh that crunchy skin. That aroma while they were cooking. And bite-after-bite of seasoned chicken. A wonderful combination of brown sugar, paprika, honey and other herbs, these wings are a great change from your usual Buffalo-inspired wings.

Sweet Peeper Air Fryer Dry Wings

Crazy Easy

Making great air fryer dry wings really is easy. Season the wings a bit. Cook them to perfection. Season them some more. And if you’re like me, eat them immediately and burn your mouth. Well, it has happened. I can’t help myself. These Sweet Peeper air fryer dry wings smelled so good while they were cooking that I couldn’t wait for them to cool down a bit before taking those first few bites.

Crispier Than A Fall Evening

My approach to air fryer wings always gets me that great crunchy crispy skin. If you can handle the wait, let them cool a bit after cooking (and after that last seasoning) to crisp up a bit more.

Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple Air Fryer Dry Wings

These Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple air fryer dry wings are kinda different. The seasoning has a bit of a sweetness to it. A bit of tropical flavor. Oh then comes the heat. Good heat. A nice stingy heat. Each bite is a ‘welcome to the islands’ kiss. With a rough edge to it. These are great dry wings that are a bit different than the dry wings you usually get or make.

Kinder's Habanero Pineapple Air Fryer Dry Wings

Season. Cook. Season.

I like to double-season my Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple air fryer dry wings. First, I give my fresh wings a bit of a seasoning before going into the air fryer. It’s like a dry marinade in a way. You can even let the wings set for up to 2 hours, absorbing that flavor, before cooking. Then, after they come out of the fryer all golden brown with crispy skin, I toss them in more seasoning. While they are still hot. That’s when the oils are still on the surface of the wings, ready and willing to take on more seasoning. That’s when you hit them with more. Oh yeah!
