What is Gochujang?
OTFC Pantry
Gochujang, pronounced "gow choo jang," can be found in the international section of most markets, at local Asian markets, or online. It's a spicy red pepper paste used in tons of Korean recipes and as a basic condiment. Sriracha is an easy substitute, but not as spicy gochujang.
Step 1
Smoke the Wings
Preheat the smoker to 275 adding wood chips or chunks if desired. Season the wings with the Korean BBQ Spices and Korean chili flakes and smoke them to 165F.
Step 2
Preheat the fryer
While the wings smoke, preheat your frying oil to 350F.
Step 3
Fry the wings
Working in batches, carefully fry the wings. Remove from the fryer and set aside while you make the sauce.
Step 4
Sauce
In a small cast iron skillet over direct heat, melt the butter and toast the garlic. Add the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, honey, and sesame oil. Simmer until thickened, 2 - 3 minutes. Add the cornstarch and water and simmer another 2 - 3 minutes to thicken.
Step 4
Garnish and Serve
Whisk the remaining Gochujang, apple cider vinegar and honey together for the finishing sauce, garnish and serve!
