Texas Chipotle Wings of Fire

• 3 chipotle peppers -- stems removed
• 2 dried red New Mexican chilies
• 1 large onion -- chopped
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 clove garlic -- minced
• 3 piquin chilies -- crushed
• 3/4 cup diced tomatos
• 3 tablespoons vinegar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 cups water
• 2 pounds chicken wings

  Cover dried chilies with hot water and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain.

  Sauté the onion in oil until soft. Add garlic, cook for another 3 minutes. Add remaining ingredients except for the chicken wings, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and puree in a blender until smooth.

  Cook chicken wings over a slow open fire, turning frequently, until done--about 30 minutes. Baste liberally with the sauce during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
