Equipment

  • Z Grills Pellet Smoker
  • Z Grills Competition Blend Pellets

Ingredients

  • 5 pounds of chicken wings (flats and drumettes)
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Pat dry the chicken wings with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Place the wings in a zip-top bag.
  • Add baking powder and salt to the wings in the bag. Seal the bag and shake it to evenly coat the wings.
  • Preheat your smoker to 250°F and add your preferred wood pellet for smoking. Place the wings directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and smoke for 30 minutes.
  • Increase the temperature of the smoker to 425°F and continue cooking the wings for another 45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 175°F. Rotate or flip the wings as necessary for even cooking.
  • Once the wings are done, remove them from the grill and serve. You can serve them plain or toss them in your favorite BBQ seasoning or hot sauce.

    I don’t know how to set my grill to 425°: my settings go from 375° to 450°.

    1. Most likely the “high” setting

    2. 1 star
      Don’t have 425 as the cooking temp if Z Grills don’t have a 425 setting.
