What do I need to know about smoking some chicken wings? Prep, temp, time, wood, etc…

I prefer oak or cherry wood. 275 roughly 90-120 minutes, depends on how much you’re doing and your desired finished product. I’ve pulled them at 60 minutes and fried them, that was good! I’ve glazed on the smoker numerous time up to 2-1/2 hours.
I keep the wings whole, season them and open them a little when you place them on the rack!

The end all be all way to smoke wings is to par smoke them and then finish them naked in the fryer!
But smoked wings is my favorite way to have them, also won't hurt to brine them before smoking.

The best way I've found to smoke/grill wings is in a Weber Kettle. Using the charcoal baskets or a device called a vortex.
Fully lit chimney of coals in the middle, bottom and top vents wide open.
Wings in a circle around the outside edge of the grate.
One chunk of your preferred wood in the middle over the top of the coals.
This method essentially turns the Kettle into a smoky air fryer, Some guys believe in rotating the lid every 8-10 minutes, I've tried it and didn't notice a difference.
Usually takes 30-35 minutes, they come out crispy and delicious every time.
