Ingredients

½ cup brown sugar see note
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne more if you want it really spicy
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground mustard
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Mix all ingredients together.
Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
To use, sprinkle wings with seasoning before cooking. You can also make delicious dry wings by sprinkling cooked wings with more seasoning.

Notes

I prefer to cut back on the brown sugar or leave it out entirely if I am using the seasoning to pre-season grilled or air fried wings. The high temperatures can cause the seasoning to burn. For seasoning after cooking, you can leave the brown sugar in.

I often end up with two batches of the seasoning, one with the brown sugar and one without. I label them as such using a marker and blue painter's tape so I can tell them apart.
