  • salt To taste
  • pepper To taste
  • garlic powder To taste
  • paprika To taste
  • cayenne pepper Optional, to taste
  • 2 ears fresh corn on the cob Best when in season
  • 1 pound green beans Fresh or frozen

  • 4 slices bacon Cooked until crispy

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. Season the chicken wings with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne if desired.
  3. Prepare the green beans by boiling or steaming until tender for about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Wrap the potato in foil if grilling and set it aside.
Grilling
  1. Grill the chicken wings, turning occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until cooked through and crispy.
  2. While the wings grill, roast the corn on the grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally for even charring.
  3. If baking the potato, either bake in the oven or microwave until soft, or grill alongside the wings.
Assembly
  1. Once everything is cooked, slice open the baked potato and load with butter, cheddar cheese, and crispy bacon.
  2. Plate the grilled wings, roasted corn, sautéed green beans, and the loaded baked potato. Serve hot.

Notes

Patience is key for grilling the wings to avoid rubbery meat. Invest in good tongs for easier handling. For a fun meal, serve everything communal-style.
