MARMITE CHICKEN WINGS
When faced with a chicken wing challenge by Australian barbecue enthusiast Hilary Anderson of BBQ Lads I knew I had to address the age old contest of none other than Marmite vs Vegemite... just to envoke a reaction if nothing else. And quite honestly I have been shocked at how that store cupboard staple, often used a few times for toast and then forgotten about, is a bloody good barbecue aid! When added to the sweet taste of sugary barbecue sauce and brown sugar you are treated to the sweet and salty combination which is just perfect for the grill. So grab your store cupboard staples and give this one a go.
