Continue cooking at the same temperature for an additional 12 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine BBQ sauce, honey, and hot sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir frequently until warmed through, then remove from heat.

Transfer wings to a large bowl, pour approximately 75% of the warmed BBQ sauce over them, and toss gently to coat. Serve with remaining sauce on the side.
