Every summer a buddy of mine arranges a booze cruise on the boat Sea Mist to do a two hour tour of the Thimble Islands in Long Island Sound off of Branford, CT. Food isn't the showpiece of this swaray (yes I know that's a bastardized spelling) but there's usually some munchies so I decided to cook up some scarbelly wings. https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/scarbelly-wings-and-thanks-to-everyone.275943/
I used 2:1:1 Creole butter, Frank's Wing sauce and habarero sauce for the injection, poured the remainder on top then set in the fridge about 1.5hrs. Pulled them out and dusted with Tony Chachers. Fired the smoker to 300°F and cooked the wings about 45min, flipping to attempt a good skin on both sides. Came out very tasty, skin was good but could be a bit crispier. I'm working on the heat level, this was my 2nd attempt and still fairly mild but yummy, everyone that had one was very complimentary.
Btw, the Thimble Islands are really just big rocks sticking out of the Sound that rich people build houses on that they use 2 months a year. Some crazy rich people even "collect islands". There are 1 or 2 bigger island that regular type peeps have nice little summer cottages on.
The torture tools:
Smelling good:
