3               chipotle peppers stems removed  
2               dried red New Mexican chiles  
1   Medium      onion chopped  
2   Tablespoons vegetable oil  
2   Cloves      garlic minced  
3               piquin chiles crushed  
3/4 Cup         ketchup  
3   Tablespoons vinegar  
2   Tablespoons brown sugar  
1   Teaspoon    dry mustard  
1   Teaspoon    worcestershire sauce  
2   Cups        water  
2   Pounds      chicken wings  

Cover dried chiles with hot water and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain. Saute
the onion in oil until soft. Add garlic, cook for another 3 minutes. Add
remaining ingredients except for the chicken wings, bring to a boil, reduce
heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and puree in a blender
until smooth.
Cook over a slow fire, turning frequently, until done--about 30 minutes.
Baste liberally with the sauce during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
