I smoked 30 Pollo Rojo wing pieces on my 22" Weber Grill. The wings were marinated in the magic mojo at La Ranchera grocery in Broward County. My rub was a combination of Adobo plus Chipotle Sea Salt and other seasonings. One hour of smoking and then the wings were flipped for a final 15 minutes more. Great results primarily due to the very unique secret mojo that La Ranchera uses.
How do you smoke the wings? I find they are impossible to light. (sorry, I just had to).
Sounds delicious.
BTW, I used HALF the grate for the charcoal. On the opposite half of the grill above I placed the wing pieces so the heat was indirect. Using that Pollo Rojo Magic Mojo results in a deep red color when they are done.
The Magic Mojo in which they are marinated at La Ranchera is a given. From there you can make a rub with whatever flavors and spices you like. For me the emphasis was on Chipotle plus the Adobo base I use on most everything.
Looks outstanding. Now you went and made me hungry.
If you ever travel thru Memphis stop at central bbq and order up some of their wings. One of the tastiest things I have ever had in my mouth.
Looks delicious- what was the sauce on the plate at the end?
JALAPENO POPPERS
VARY--Good idea to stuff jalapenos w/ cream cheese and cheddar combo before dolloping on cornbread.

What’s your method for temperature control?
Remember when Chicken Wings were nearly scrap and could be had at the Butcher for almost nothing?
If you had kids in Little League, you could ask for a bag of free wings with your regular meat order.
Used for Soup and other things . . .
Now, Wings are often more expensive than skinless boneless chicken breast.
Whod’a thunk it?
Sweet Baby Ray's Wing Sauce.
The vents on top of the kettle.
I guess you’re wearing some POV camera on your forehead? Great perspective!
Like smoking crawdads. First, you have to get a little pot,,,
Well, you and I will get along very well. Just last night I crock potted a bunch of bone in beef short ribs with beans and various spices, the most important being the chipotles in adobo. I swear it was even better tonight when I got the leftovers.
