Ingredients
- 5 LB – Chicken Wings (whole)
- 1 Cup – Smoky Texas BBQ Rodeo Rub
- 2 Cup – Whiskey Barrel Bourbon BBQ Sauce
Directions
Trim chicken wings as needed, then season generously with Smoky Texas BBQ Rodeo Rub. Let them rest at room temperature while you preheat your smoker.
Preheat your Pro Max smoker to 250°F using the cook setting.
Place the seasoned wings directly on the smoker racks. Cook for 30 minutes.
Fill a sawdust pan halfway with smoking sawdust and lightly dampen with water.
Place the sawdust pan directly on the heating element. Adjust the smoker dampers to two-thirds closed on both the top and bottom vents.
Smoke until wings reach a 170°F internal temperature, ensuring they are fully cooked.
Transfer wings to a 400°F oven or over direct heat on a charcoal grill to crisp the skin.
Baste wings generously with Whiskey Barrel Bourbon BBQ Sauce and cook for 5–10 minutes more.
Remove from heat and let the wings rest for 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve and enjoy your perfectly smoked and sauced chicken wings.
