I assume you grill them directly over the flame, not with the sheet underneath ? I use the setup in your picture to do my "weekday" wings in the (convection) oven, which yields moderately crispy wings in about 20-25 min with minimum effort.
That’s right. The rack/pan is just my default platter for taking stuff off the grill so it doesn’t steam out and get soggy. Plus I can throw the wings in the oven if they start to cool off too much. I’ve been meaning to try just cooking them in the oven, but the grill is basically just as easy. I may give it a shot sometime soon (probably with a baking powder or soda pretreat) and see if I can get a crispier result without frying.
