Smoked Chicken Wings

[memphisbud]

If ya gotta Weber Kettle, that's how I do mine....similar brine/marinade, sear over the coals (set up on one side), then stack at the other and damp it down for a few hours after adding a chunk of apple....rotate bottom wings to top about half way through to get the color going good. Yum!

Meathunter,

How long did you brine your wings for? And afterwards, did you just wash em off or did you have to soak em. I brined some chicken breasts one time for an hour and washed three times. Although they were awesome, they were salted to hell!

I soaked mine in brine overnite, 12 hours. I did not wash them off at all. What kind of salt did you use? Regular table salt? How was your brine made? Ingredients? I had zero salt taste on my wings nor did I have any when I did a whole turkey. Let me know what you did and lets see if we can figure out what happened.

I used Kosher salt. I don't remember which brine recipe I used but it was pretty basic with some salt, white sugar, crab boil, and herbs. I'll try again sometime.

When you get a chance, tell me how much salt you used with how much water and how much poultry. I can throw a combination together for you that I think should work good for you.
