In my household chicken wings are a crowd-pleaser, and this wing recipe has been a favorite at potlucks and parties I have attended. The cola acts as a meat tenderizer, making the wings tender and succulent while adding a distinct hint of flavor to the sweet and tangy marinade. Great for picnics or potlucks, these wings can be a little messy, so be sure to pack extra napkins.
