- 25 slices of bacon (about 2 pounds)
- 1 cup your favorite BBQ sauce
- 4 Tbsp kosher salt
- 2 Tbsp granulated garlic
- 1 Tbsp ground black pepper

- Liberally season chicken wings with the seasoning mixture.
- Wrap each chicken wing with a strip of partially cooked bacon.
- Place bacon-wrapped chicken wings onto a cooling rack and set in rimmed cookie sheet. This will help the heat circulate around the chicken and allow grease to drip off.

- While the chicken wings are cooking, heat your favorite BBQ sauce over medium-low heat until just steaming, then keep warm.
- When the chicken wings are finished and bacon is crispy, remove from oven and brush with BBQ sauce.
