This is an adaption of Alton Browns wings tutorial video. Hubby and I have changed our cooking method to this one and we have success with wings each and every time no matter what seasonings we use. The idea here is to steam-cook the wings on the inside first, then bake the skin crispy. They come out perfect! Juicy meat on the inside but crispy skin on the outside! yummm-o! **NOTE** This is not my picture, I pulled it off the web, but this is what they look like before you toss them in bbq sauce.
