I like a good dry rub for different meats and some meats seem better with a sloppy (I assume your're talking liquid type marinate/sause ) preperation

Either is fine, but I prefer Boston Market.

I agree Belly. Lately I've been preferring the dry rub seasoning.

I've found that using Luzianne Cajun Seasoning and mixing it about 1:1 with Hidden Valley Ranch mix makes for some very tasty wings.

Both are justified in this case. The dry rub shouldn't have been texting in the first place so the sloppy rub should've shot him.

Marinating chicken and beef sirloin tip in a dill pickle juice (if you like the favor of dill)... and then grilling is a really different but good flavor. Go online there a few different types of dill juice marinate.
I use the Food Saver marinating option, it works great and in less than 30 minute I have marinated chicken or beef that would have taken 3 hours or more

I think you can mix anything in Hidden Valley Ranch and you can't go wrong.

Beer is a great meat tenderizer

When Belly was poor… Poor Stew Meat Kabobs

11/2 lb. Stew Meat or More
2 cans cheap Beers .. Duke, Red White and Blue, Blatz, Black Label (NO LITE SHIT)
½ cup oil
Salt, pepper, garlic powder (tablespoon each)
Large cut up pieces Onions, Green, Red Pepper, Mushrooms (whatever you put on your Kabobs)

In a large roaster type pan add everything together cover and marinate, refrigerate for 6 hours or more, remover and skewer and grill

Grill the meat until a good brown or darker grilled look all around. You can use the marinate to season( pour over) while grilling.

Meat will be tender, great grilling flavor

Family and friends know I like to grill-out so I received both spices and sauces as gifts for Christmas this year.

When we were in Charleston not long ago we picked up some spices from the Spice and Tea Exchange on Church St. (in the market area downtown) and really enjoyed the meals we prepared with our purchases once we were home. Lo and behold, I had a 5-pack of seasonings from their website under the tree! Can't wait to use them on the grill, especially the grilled fish blend. I also got a Budweiser BBQ sauce 3-pack that will probably be used on wings from the oven in the very near future.

I have a bunch of spices from there and they are delicious! There are a few that I need to order some more of.

I like both types and will really just depend on my mood if I want a wet or dry rub... Although wings should always be wet.

Wet yes, when no females are closely involved. My gf likes the dry rub so I've grown accustomed and developed an appreciation for the not-so-sloppy variety.

Yeah, great wings but it depends who is cooking! The main person does a great job and man they amazing, but too often someone is cooking and they are dry and just ok. thats why I always tell them lots of sauce on it, AND some on the side


tehy started all you can eat wings on wednesday a few years ago........

For wings I go sloppy, but if I'm making a brisket or a roast, dry rub is the way to go
