Great recipe! I BBQ'd the Tequila Lime wings last weekend and they turned out Terrific!! Some of the people say they can't find the ingredients... Weird, I found them at my local grocer and I live in a small town! The agave nectar is super good - it's like honey but has a different kick to it. Tonight I'm going to do the tequila lime recipe again but FRY them this time ... Hope it turns out great! THX FoodNetwork!

Love the Marinade and baste..The oven cooking didn't really work well for me. I'll be preparing the wings again during our football get togethers but will do the precooking on the BBQ and go from there.
