This recipe is full of flavor! The Cherry planked chicken wings are prepared with a chili dry rub (you can adjust how spicy it is, depending on your preference) and then infused with a sweet, smoky flavor from the plank. Afterwards, serve with some fresh herbs and squirt with fresh lime juice. Whether it’s for your next Super Bowl party or a weeknight dinner, these wings are a must-try for any grillmaster.

nice dipping sauces for this recipe
although it stands well on its own.

- Grill planked chicken roughly 12-15 minutes or until thoroughly cooked and the skin is crispy.

Chicken wings are the perfect planking item because they tend to dry out quickly on the grill. With the plank, they stay moist and succulent.
