    Smoked Wings--Tough Skin

    Due to the "smallness" of chicken wings I always smoke mine at a high temp. of 300-350 for 1-1 1/2 hours. Anymore time than that and they will dry out. The skin has never been tough ( maybe have a slight chew to it) but is always crispy. This way I don't have to work on two pieces of equipment...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    My first car was handed down to me by my daddy. It was his 1965 elcamino that I remember riding in since I was just a little thing. It had a well built 327 small block engine. As it goes with most teenage boys I ended up totaling the thing but I have been hooked on elcaminos ever since. Thus...

    @bjlasota I don't flip them on the smoker but on the grill I have to because the heat is so close and intense. The expanded metal grate in the smoker lets them cook from all sides without touching them .
