I’m not sure if this is an appropriate place for this question, but with an 11:30 kick off on Saturday I want to smoke wings and thighs!! Anyone have a good recipe and strategy for smoking them?
I second Tony’s recommendation of using a Traeger recipe (I have a Pit Boss smoker but I love Traeger’s recipes). My only advice is to give it a 30-minute kick on the highest temp right at the end – if you don’t, the skin won’t be bite-through.
I recommend a buttermilk brine for the meat. You have to start it now though. Take the meat out around 0500. Then get it on the smoker around 0600 to have it ready for kickoff.
