Recipe View 10 mins Broil to Crispy Perfection: Cook the wings under the hot broiler, turning once, until they reach your desired level of crispness. This will typically take between 5 to 15 minutes, so keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. (Estimated time: 10 minutes)

For extra crispy wings, consider placing them on a wire rack set inside the jelly roll pan. This allows air to circulate around the wings, promoting even crisping.
Feel free to experiment with different barbecue sauces to find your perfect flavor combination. A smoky or spicy sauce would work wonderfully!
If you're using thawed wings, reduce the pressure cooking time by 2-3 minutes.
Make sure to pat the wings as dry as possible before broiling. The less moisture, the crispier the wings.
