Equipment

  • 1 Pellet smoker

Ingredients
  

  • 3.3 lbs chicken wings
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp BBQ sauce enough to coat chicken
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Buffalo sauce enough to coat chicken
  • 3 tbsp ranch
  • 2 stalks green onions

Instructions
 

  • Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel.
  • Toss wings in a bowl with salt and baking powder. This helps draw out moisture to make them crispy during cooking.
  • Before hitting the smoker, spray the grill with a little spray oil to avoid chicken from sticking.
  • Using the 0-400 method, place the chicken wings on your cold grill then crank it up to 400F.
  • Let it smoke for 30 minutes, then flip the wings over.
  • Let it cook for another 30 minutes until the internal meat temperature hits 165F. I like to keep them on for a bit longer to about 185-195F. (Careful not to burn your wings if your smoker has hot spots).
  • Place them in a tray to sauce them. I’ve added half with bbq sauce + honey, and half with buffalo. Return to smoke for another 10 minutes to heat up.
  • Serve with ranch and garnish with green onions.
