Best Smoked Chicken Wings With Carolina Bbq Sauce And Green Onion And Feta Dip Recipes

SMOKED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• For the marinade: Combine the cayenne, salt, granulated sugar and lime juice in a large bowl, then add the wings, tossing to coat. Marinate, refrigerated, for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Allow the wings to come to room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
• Soak 2 cups applewood chips in water for 1 hour
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• For the Memphis dry rub: Combine the brown sugar, salt, granulated sugar, black pepper, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and cayenne in a small bowl. Any rub that is not used can be stored in a mason jar for up to 1 month.
• Drain the soaked wood chips and throw them directly on top of the coals.
• Remove the wings from the marinade, then place on the grate on the indirect side of the grill. Cover the grill with a lid and allow the wings to smoke for 25 to 30 minutes.
• To finish, move the wings to the hot side of the grill to char, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the wings from the grill and add to a mixing bowl. Season liberally with the rub and toss to coat. Serve with Buttermilk Herb Dipping Sauce.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, cheese, parsley, chives, dill, garlic, lemon zest and juice and salt and pepper to taste. This makes a great salad dressing too--just thin it out with some more buttermilk!

SMOKED CHICKEN HOT WINGS

Steps:

• Heat a smoker to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C) according to manufacturer's directions.
• Mix 1 tablespoon salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning in a small bowl to make dry rub. Sprinkle over chicken wings.
• Cook chicken wings in the preheated smoker until tender, 1 to 1 1/4 hour.
• Combine hot pepper sauce, butter, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and salt in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring often, until butter is melted and sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Transfer smoked wings to a large bowl; stir in 1/2 of the sauce until wings are evenly coated.
• Grill coated wings until skin is browned and starting to get crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in remaining sauce until wings are well-coated.

OVEN-ROASTED CAROLINA BBQ CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top of each. Coat the racks with nonstick cooking spray.
• Make the Carolina BBQ sauce: Whisk together the mustard, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and the sugars dissolve, about 10 minutes. Set aside half of the sauce for the final basting and for serving.
• Make the oven-roasted chicken wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Stir together the flour, House Seasoning and baking powder in a bowl. Dredge the chicken wings in the flour mixture and arrange on the wire racks in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes. Turn, then baste with the Carolina BBQ sauce and bake until the chicken wings are browned and crispy and a thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes longer.
• Brush the roasted chicken wings with the reserved sauce before serving.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

CAROLINA-STYLE BARBECUE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Whisk the yellow mustard, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard powder, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl. Whisk in the butter.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then toss with about one-third of the mustard sauce in a large bowl until coated. Let sit at room temperature, 10 minutes.
• Brush the grill grates generously with vegetable oil. Put about 1/4 cup of the remaining mustard sauce in a small bowl for basting and reserve the rest for topping. Grill the chicken, covered, basting occasionally with the sauce, until well marked and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 170 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes per side.
• Serve the chicken with the reserved mustard sauce, sliced tomato and macaroni salad, if desired.

SMOKED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Place chicken wings in a large bowl. Pour in olive oil; toss with hands until coated. Coat wings evenly with dry rub.
• Light charcoal and heat smoker to 170 to 200 degrees F (77 to 93 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Drain wood chips and place half of them directly on the charcoal. Spread wings evenly on the cooking grate skin-side down.
• Smoke wings until fragrant, about 1 hour.
• Flip wings. Add remaining wood chips to the charcoal. Continue smoking until an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 hour more.
• Serve chicken wings with blue cheese dressing.
