Equipment

1 Traeger Timberline XL
1 Wire Cooling Rack
1 Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

2 lbs Chicken Wings
3 tbsp Smoked Q Rock's Honey Chipotle Spice Blend
1 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

To add some extra smoky flavor to these wings, I set the Traeger Timberline XL to 225º and turned on the Super Smoke function while I prepped the wings.
If you want to save time, you can buy wings that are already split. However, for this recipe, I bought whole wings and then split them myself. First, I used a sharp knife to remove the end flap. Then, I separated the flat from the drum by cutting in the joint and applying pressure to cut all the way through.
To prepare the chicken wings, I first pat them down with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. Then, I place the wings into a large mixing bowl and sprinkle them with some cornstarch and Smoked Q Rock's Honey Chipotle seasoning. Finally, I mix everything together using my hands until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Next, I transferred the wings to a baking rack for ease of transportation to and from the smoker. Then, I applied a generous amount of my Smoked Q Rock's Honey Chipotle seasoning, flipping over to make sure to coat both sides evenly.
To add a smoky flavor to the wings, I cooked them at 225º for 15 minutes using super smoke.
To finish the cook, I cranked up the smoker to 400º and ran these wings for another 35-45 minutes until they were sizzling and a beautiful golden brown color.
After checking a few wings that reached an internal temperature of 175º, I removed them from the grill and served them almost immediately!
