Can you use beef instead of chicken??
To be honest I am not sure. I keep meaning to try it myself but haven’t had the time. It is delicious with chicken and is definitely worth a try with beef. If you try it please let me know how it goes. I would love to hear! Take care and be well. Karin

Can u use apple cider instead of apple juice? Can u do this with chicken wings
I’m sure apple cider would work instead of apple juice. As for wings I think I am going to try it! What a fabulous idea! It would be a tasty coating on chicken wings. Please let me know if you try this recipe with chicken wings before I do! This recipe is delicious! Take care and all the best. Karin
