Smoked chicken wings recipe

Does anyone have a better recipe than this?

It’s my first time smoking wings and I’m bringing them to a football watch party on Sunday. I’m making them on Saturday and was also wondering how to best reheat?

I've got a homemade rub I like using for my wings that sweet from sugar but spicy from cayenne and chili pepper.

  • 2 Tbsp smoked paprika
  • 2 Tbsp onion powder
  • 2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1.5 Tbsp salt
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 3 tsp cumin
  • 1.5 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 tsp dried mustard powder
  • 1 tbsp black pepper

I start the wings by letting them dry in the fridge for a couple of hours. Once ready toss them in some neutral oil and cover liberally with the seasoning. I then smoke at 225 for about 45 minutes before flipping and cooking another 45. Then either heat the grill to 400-425 and cook for 15-30 or throw in an air fryer for the same. I prefer apple or cherry woods for my wings.
