00:00My name is John Barker, probably the greatest pitmaster of all time. Nobody really knows,
00:04anybody can say it. It's all subjective. That being said, today I got a very special recipe.
00:10I got some of this strawberry acai matador energy drink from YouTube superstar Danny Duncan,
00:16and we're going to use it to make some of the best chicken wings you'll ever have in your life.
00:21Again, it's all subjective. Let's freaking go. The first thing we're going to do is make like
00:26the chronic and throw these bad boys backside up, and we're going to season them with your favorite
00:30barbecue rub. I'm using that skull and mortar OG rub. Once you got them seasoned, you're going to
00:35flip them over so the top sides up. That skull and mortar rub is available at skullandmortar.com if
00:40you're looking for it. And then we're just going to go ahead and give it a healthy dose of seasoning
00:43on the top side as well. Now I want a little extra saltiness with this, so I'm going to go
00:47ahead and
00:48use some of that hardcore carnivore black rub as well. I know it says it's for beef, but it's good
00:53on chicken too. Just give it a light dusting. Now's a great time for you to hit that like and
00:58subscribe as we're throwing our wings directly on the rack. We've got our smoker set at 300 degrees
01:04and you can use whatever wood you want. I'm using cherry. Now while our wings get up to 165 degrees
01:10internal, we're going to go ahead and make our sauce and we're going to start with some strawberry
01:13preserves. Now we really want to amplify the strawberry flavor in the matador energy drink and take advantage
01:19of that sweetness. Now we got our strawberry acai matador energy drink and we're going to pop the
01:25cap on this and we're going to dump the entire thing into our sauce. Now we're going to, we do
01:30want to
01:30maintain some of the traditional elements of barbecue, so I'm going to use the skull and mortar
01:34OG sauce here to kind of round out my sauce. Now if you don't have access to this sauce, you'll
01:40want to
01:40use a sauce that does well with sweeter elements. That's very important because with the strawberry jelly
01:45and then the matador energy drink, it's going to be sweet, so you don't want a sauce that's going to
01:50conflict with those flavors. From here on out, we're just going to whisk it down. We're going to heat it
01:55up. We're going to get it to a rolling boil and then we're going to let it cool back down
02:00so it
02:00thickens up. You want to make sure that you keep the sauce moving though so it doesn't burn. It will
02:05burn easily because of the sugar, so keep it moving. After about two and a half hours, our wings are
02:11done and they are looking phenomenal. We're going to go ahead and pour our sauce into a bowl here.
02:17As you can see, it is still a little thin, but it is still very hot, so we're going to
02:21let that cool
02:22down just a little bit longer. We want to make sure that we get it off that heat though.
02:28Guys, we have finished our matador energy shot chicken wings. We've got the sauce here and honestly,
02:34I'm going to be honest with you, I took a little sneak peek. It's really actually pretty good, dude.
02:39I'm honestly surprised. I didn't know what to expect, but we're going to start small here.
02:43We're just going to dip a chicken wing in here.
02:50Get a load of that. Get a load of that. Get a load of that. I'm just going to keep
02:58saying get a load
02:59of that until somebody confirms that they have in fact got a load of that. All right, let's give it
03:03a bite.
03:14Bro, you've got to be kidding me. These wings are low-key a banger and they're really pretty simple.
03:24I'm very surprised by how good these wings turned out. In fact, I think I'm going to eat this wing
03:31as well. They're good. They're fruity. They got a nice sweetness to them. They got the right amount
03:44of salt. They got the right amount of savory. I know a lot of you are going to watch this
