Hi all. A bit of a conundrum.
My kid’s school is having a festival where I expected to be cooking 150 wing drummettes. I have two Webers’ and expected to just use them - my Lang 48” is not mobile.
The orders came in, and I’ll be doing 300+ so I got another guy with another Weber.
Today it was announced that there’d likely be another 100 folks coming and could I handle that. As we have a three and a half hour window for the wings I told them that that would really be pushing it. Still I’d like to help them out.
My original plan was to thaw next Wednesday to Thursday. Brine on Friday and grill on Saturday.
Now I’m wondering.
I’ve got a Lang 48 not doing anything, but I’m wondering if I can brine Thursday to Friday and then precook on the Lang friday evening and reheat on Saturday, knocking the cook time by nearly two thirds on the day. (Normally my Weber wings take 30 minutes indirect and I’m assuming ten minutes for the reheat). These don’t need to be competition quality, but I’d really like them to taste good.
My brine is a salt, vinegar, water, Goya Sazón mix. I usually just add sauce after cooking while warm.
Advice, suggestions, ideas please!
(Also, I live in Japan, and they don’t have ovens (seriously), or turkey fryers available. Boiling is also not an option).
