Proper method of creating distribution lists in SBS 2011 with Exchange 2010

What's the proper, best-practices method for creating distribution lists in SBS 2011?  I have created all of my domain users using the SBS wizards as I know that's the no-brainer way to go.  However, external contacts and distribution lists (some using external contacts, some not) have me a bit perplexed.

Using the SBS wizard to add a distro group has no method that I can see to add external contacts so that's kind of a non-starter.  

I can easily do everything I want using the Exchange 2010 Management Console but I fear later repercussions for breaking the cardinal SBS rule of "Always use the wizards!!"

Can I safely use the Exchange Management Console to create all of my distribution lists and external contacts?
