Cluckin' Hell Hot Honey Chicken
Sweet. Spicy. Sticky. Slightly inappropriate.
This one's a crowd-pleaser with teeth. Crispy-edged chicken coated in Cluckin' Hell heat, finished with a glossy hot-honey glaze that balances sweet, spicy, and "whoa that's good." Perfect for grilling, smoking, or oven roasting when the weather's being a jerk.
🐔 What You'll Need:
Chicken cut of choice (but remember bone-in, skin-on = maximum joy)
2 tbsp olive oil
2-3 Tbsp Cluckin' Hell (don't be shy)
For the Hot Honey:
1/3 cup honey
1 Tbsp butter
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp Cluckin' Hell
Pinch of salt (if desired)
🔥 How To
Season like you mean it Pat chicken dry, rub with olive oil, then coat generously with Cluckin' Hell. Let it sit 20-30 minutes if you've got patience (or overnight if you're a legend).
Cook the chicken
Grill: Medium heat (375-400F), skin side down first
Oven: 425F on a rack over a tray.
Cook until skin is crispy and internal temp hits 175F
Make the glaze Simmer honey, butter, vinegar, and Cluckin' Hell for 3-4 minutes. It should thicken slightly and smell dangerously good.
Glaze & finish Brush glaze on chicken during the last 5 minutes. Flip once, glaze again, and let it caramelize without burning (walk away for one beer, max).
Rest & serve Let rest 5 minutes. Try not to eat the first one standing at the grill (You will anyway.)
⭐ Pro Tip
Want extra heat? Double down on Cluckin' Hell.
No grill? Broil for the last 2-3 minutes to crisp that skin.
Leftovers make unreal sandwiches the next day. If there are leftovers.
Full Flavour. No Extra Sh*t.
