Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Pat wings dry and season evenly with salt; let sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.
Prepare a smoker to 225°F (107°C) using hickory wood chunks, and smoke the wings for 90 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Whisk together maple syrup, chipotle peppers, and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat, simmering for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Transfer smoked wings to a hot grill grate over direct medium-high heat, turning frequently for 5-8 minutes until the skin is charred and crispy.
Toss wings in the warm sauce immediately before serving.
