Making Wings Using the Vortex on a Weber Kettle Grill

The Culinary Fanatic

This is a video of my first use the Vortex on my Weber Master-Touch Kettle Grill. I have smoked wings before on my Weber, but they were no match for how they turned out using the Vortex. Beautiful color, crispy rendered skin, a nice touch of oak smoke, and juicy on the inside. After just my first time using the Vortex, I am already thinking of other creative ways to use it. It's a very simple tool, but extremely effective!

To hell with Mona Lisa, this is true art!

The trick to really crispy wings is to add some baking powder to your rub.It causes a chemical reaction with the chicken skin.

This really helps with making chicken crispy, the vortex is a must have if you plan on grilling chicken

I've got an old folgers coffee can I use for my minion method ...think I'm gonna try this with the coffee can ...and just reduce the grilling area for the food

I made wings using the Vortex and they were
the most crispiest and delicious wings I've ever had, I just dry rubbed them and they took about an hour.

I saw this video towards the beginning of the pandemic and ordered a Vortex. The wings were outstanding! Thank you for making this video.

That's a pretty cool way to cook wings! They look good!

Got me a vortex and also the same grate set up a few years back. Doing boneless thighs as soon as I'm finished commenting. Gave them a rub already and will finish them over the coals with some sauce. Vortex is worth every penny. Nice cook.

I was just seeing the vortex on Instagram and now you put up this vid to further convince me that I "NEED" this piece of kettle cookery... My wife isn't going to understand... (until she gets some of those wings).

Thanks for the review.

i have followed your cast iron posts on youtube, facebook and instagram and it makes me so happy to see that you are using a weber kettle now too. cast iron and weber kettles are my favorite methods of cooking and everything you cook always looks great!
