1 . Stage

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Combine blackberries, ketchup, 1/4 cup water, jalapenos, vinegar, honey, garlic, and liquid smoke in a small saucepan. Stir in lime juice and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.

3 . Stage

Mix together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a cup; stir mixture into the sauce. Simmer until slightly thickened and syrupy, about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

While the wings are cooking, pour sauce through a fine mesh strainer set over a container. Tap the strainer with a spoon while straining to squeeze out the last remaining drops of sauce from the residue.
