Smoking wings using the 0-400 method...

[VA Caver]

The steps I see for cooking wings using the 0-400 method says to place the wings on the grill before starting it. That's contrary to the Pit Boss startup instructions that says to leave the lid open until the smoke dissipates.

How do y'all do it?

OK, I did my wings using the 0-400 method.

Two words sum it up best: Total crap.

Despite making sure the wings were dry as possible before smoking, they skin came out like rubber. Blech...never again.

I've never done wings on my smoker. I do them on my Weber. And I cook by internal temperature.

I may try on my charcoal grill.

Run the wings at 275, takes about 2 hours. Move em around into the hot spots, flipping. Rum em by feel for when they go crispy.

I run em on the top shelf.

ETA If I have more time I'll run em on P0, 225ish for a couple of hours for the smoke then kick em up. Gotta watch the end because they can move crispy to dry pretty fast. The last cook the flappers were pushing dry compared to the drums. Next time I'm going to try running the drums for a half hour then putting the flappers on.

I have tried smoking wings several ways and several different flavor treatments. The best for me (and wife likes them) is a buttermilk/hotwings/cheeze/etc/ recipe i found and smoking them @ 450+/- 15* for about 15 minutes per side. Turns out great.

Sometimes we cook wings in the oven at 450 for 15 minutes per side using a rack in a pan so air can flow all around them. They turn out great. Seasoning or no seasoning. I might have to try this on the Pitt Boss too.

It’s been a while since I have done wings on the Pit Boss. Basically I smoke them for long time then turn up to 300 to get the internal temp up. To keep them from getting rubbery I finish them off in the air fryer.

Go for the gusto man. More time, more smoke, mo better .

I just smoked a batch today and turned out great. A little mod on prep mixture (and covered with baking soda, 2+ tbs with 5lbs wings) and let them sit out for a couple hrs to help dry skin so crispy. Then 250* 20 min ( w/ smoke tube) then flip for another 15-20 min. Pull them out and crank temp to 450 and smoke them for approx 7-10 min just to get crispy.
