Chef’s Insight
To achieve that irresistible smoky aroma, use a blend of hardwood chips like hickory, oak, or apple when grilling. The right wood can enhance the flavor of your BBQ chicken wings and transport you straight to street food nirvana.
Notes
Adjust the heat level by using more or less hot sauce according to your preference. For extra crispy wings, broil them in the oven after baking for a few minutes.
