The elusive crispy skin coming off a smoker is something that has evaded professional BBQ teams for years. Well with a little bit of meat science and no real tricks, just a little bit of seasoning and paper towel, you can have wings that taste like they are straight out of the deep dryer but made on a smoker. I made these wings with just some seasoning salt and baking powder, and I got a message from a friend who ate them that said “can’t believe they crisped up like this on the smoker” and another message that said “Soooooooo goooooooood, Thanks!!!”. I learned the basics for this recipe from my friend Diva Q, but adapted it for our own uses. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hkgP7l0_d/?hl=en

Chicken Thighs are one of the most versatile pieces of a chicken. The dark meat is always moist, and the skin is super delicious. Plus eating meat off a bone is so primal, that there is no way not to love it. Except for when you bite it and all of the skin comes off in 1 bite. The other downside to chicken thighs is how fatty the skin is, it often causes flare ups on the BBQ unless you are cooking in an aluminum foil tray. There is a secret to perfecting the chicken thigh and it involves scraping some of the fat off the back of the skin before applying your seasoning. This little trick will take your chicken thighs from zero to hero.

Chicken wings was the first thing I ever smoked, they are easy and cheap, so if you are afraid of screwing something up, this is a great way to test your seasonings and skills before ruining an expensive cut of meat. Chicken wings are also very forgiving, as in they are hard to over season, over smoke or over cook, they can handle a lot, so fire up your smoker and give them a try! One of the best part about chicken wings is how versatile the flavors can be, you can go with simple a salt and pepper or hot, but you can also jack up the flavors with all sorts of things, but we will get into that a little later. So follow these 7 easy steps for some of the best wings you’ve ever had!

Beer can chicken is one of the most tried and true methods for making moist, delicious chicken with no fear of under cooking it. This recipe is probably what helped grow my confidence on the BBQ in the early days because the steam from the beer helps to cook the chicken from the inside and therefore it cooks more evenly and faster.
