I absolutely love wings. My wife doesn't care for them, since she really doesn't like eating the skin. She wasn't hungry for dinner, so it was my excuse to cook wings!

Yup, the skin was crispy. The temperature must be kept fairly high to render the fat so the skin crisps. While I didn't check the temperature this time, when I have in the past the temperature is north of 350. Often near 400-425.
 
Yum! I usually do them the opposite way (indirect, then direct to crisp the skin), but you can't argue with your plated results. Awesome job!

I agree. I don't care much for slow-smoked chicken, and also prefer to cook it at higher temps.
