- Olive Oil
Seasoning:
- 1 tbsp of Ancho Chile Powder
- 1 tbsp of Brown Sugar
- 1 tbsp of Sea Salt
- 3 tsp of Cayenne Powder
- 2 tsp of Black Pepper

Instructions
- Lather your chicken wingettes in olive oil. In a bowl, mix all of the seasonings and add to chicken. Mix thoroughly. Set chicken in the fridge.
- Preheat your Oklahoma Joe’s Smoker to 250F for indirect cooking. Add some hickory wood chunks for added smoke flavor if desired.
- Add your chicken wings to the smoker and cook for about 2-2.5 hours or until 165F internal.
- As wings are close to being done, preheat another Oklahoma Joe’s grill, fire pit or stovetop for direct cooking. Add a dutch oven to it and *carefully* add your frying oil. Heat frying oil for 325-350F.
- Once wings are done, pull them off and let them rest for 5 minutes. Carefully add wings to frying oil and cook for 2 minutes. Flip and stir occasionally.
- As wings are frying, gently heat up some honey and set aside.
- Pull wings out of frying oil and let rest for 2 minutes. Add to a bowl along with heated honey and toss. Serve and enjoy!
