Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Whisk soy sauce, minced garlic, molasses, brown sugar, honey, and 1 pinch garlic salt together in a large bowl; pour 3/4 marinade into a resealable plastic freezer bag. Add wings, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate wings in the refrigerator for 5 to 6 hours. Cover the bowl of remaining unused marinade with plastic wrap; refrigerate.
Step 2
Remove wings and bowl of unused marinade from the refrigerator 1 hour before baking.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; top with an oiled rack about 1/2-inch above surface of the foil.
Step 4
Remove wings from marinade, shaking off excess. Discard used marinade. Place wings on the rack, spaced about 1/2-inch apart.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Baste wings with unused marinade. Repeat, baking and basting twice more, every 20 minutes, for a total of 1 hour. Flip wings and baste; bake 30 minutes more. Flip wings and sprinkle with garlic salt. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking 15 minutes more.
