Breaded, Smoked Chicken Wings


 
Jason I have been thinking about making these. I have a couple questions. On the DP site they cooked for 1.5-2.5 hours and you said you only did them for 1 hour. Why did your cook go so much faster? Also do you have any idea as to how hot your cooker was? Also would any basic rub work for these as a seasoning? I was thinking that pretty much any seasoning might work with the breading recipe on dp's site. My wife does not like overly spicy so I might try a lemmon pepper seasoning salt. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance. Vince

Also, even though its well below, I would still consider my fire a direct fire. I probably could have done 1.5 hours and still been fine, but I pulled mine when I thought they were brown enough, and they were great.

Any basic rub should work, I used the DP stuff cause I have it, but I bet anything would be good on them. Lemon pepper salt would probably work well.

Jason,Y
At what point did you sauce them and at full strenth or did you mix the sauce with anything.
Thanks </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I didn't dilute the sauce and sauced mine at the end, but only because my wife doesn't like buffalo style sauce. If I were making these for myself, I'd probably add some sauce to the egg wash, then again at the end.

The pictures I posted though show them completely sauce free.
 
The wings look great Jason!

I plan to try this recipe on wings first, and then on fish, perhaps Tilapia.
We love fried fish, but not un-breaded grilled or baked fish.

And maybe on pork chops too?

Jason, I just now got around to making the breaded wings, and wanted to give you 2 thumbs, Way up!
I cooked them on the Performer. Indirect, with one charcoal holder full of K briqs, and a couple of small chunks of fruit wood.
Total cook time of about 2 hrs.
I used my own rub in the dry mix, and added my wing sauce (1 part Franks Hot Sauce, 1 part Durkee's Famous Sauce, and 1 part melted butter) just before devouring.

I would love to try this with fish, but since fish cook so quickly, can't see a way to do it.

Thanks for posting the recipe!
Bob
