For the Pak Choi:

For Garnish:

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Wings
    • Pat your chicken wings dry using kitchen roll and place them in a large bowl.
    • Add salt, white pepper, garlic powder, Chinese 5 spice, and baking powder.
    • Mix thoroughly, making sure each wing is well coated.
  2. Set Up Your Ninja Woodfire
    • Preheat the Ninja Woodfire using the 'Air Fry' function at 200°C (392°F).
    • Fill the hopper with 'All-Purpose Blend' wood pellets to add that essential smoky flavour.
    • Hit the 'Woodfire' button before pressing START to activate the smoke feature.
  3. Cook the Wings
    • Place the wings on the rack and give them a light spray with oil (I recommend avocado oil).
    • Air fry for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through and spraying with oil again to ensure crispiness.
  4. Make the Sauce
    • While the wings are cooking, combine the light soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes (optional) in a pan.
    • Simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Coat the Wings
    • Once the wings are done, toss them in a large bowl with the sauce.
    • Let the wings rest for a few minutes to soak up all the sticky goodness.
  6. Air Fry the Pak Choi
    • Toss the pak choi with sesame oil, light soy sauce, and honey.
    • Air fry at 190°C (374°F) for 7 minutes, turning them halfway through.
  7. Plating Up
    • Lay the pak choi on the plate and place the sauced wings on top.
    • Garnish with a sprinkle of white and black sesame seeds, thinly sliced red chillies, and curled spring onion strands.

🔥 And THAT’S why a vacuum sealer machine is your BEST mate when you BBQ.

Today’s lunch was the stuff of legend—smoked pulled pork nachos made in just 35 minutes. Yep, you heard that right.

Here’s the trick:

💡 Pulled pork straight from the freezer (still vacuum-sealed) into a saucepan of simmering water. 25 minutes later—perfection.

💥 Hit it with an extra sprinkle of BBQ rub.

💪 Layered up with nachos, BBQ sauce, salsa, and cheese.

🔥 10 mins in the oven for melty goodness.

🌶️ Finished with sriracha drizzle, spring onion, and sour cream dollops.

The kids smashed it in seconds, and honestly, so did I.

Vacuum sealing = game changer. Keeps the flavour, keeps the moisture, keeps you winning.

👉 Wanna know more about reheating vacuum-packed BBQ leftovers like a pro? I’ve got you covered. Check out the full guide here: https://www.smokeandsear.world/foundations-tips/how-to-reheat-vacuum-packed-bbq-food-a-complete-guide/

🎤 So here’s the thing… I was gonna go all healthy with Cornflakes for this chicken sandwich. You know, like everyone else does. But then my local shop let me down. No Cornflakes, just Frosties.

And you know what? I binned the “healthy vibes” right then and there. Frosties it was. Sweet, crunchy, and a little rebellious – just how I like it.

I chucked everything at this sandwich: sweet, spicy, crunchy, glazed goodness… and honestly, maaaaaate, it turned out way better than I could’ve imagined. This thing is an absolute flavour bomb. 💣
