Deck Heads BBQ – Episode 2 Hickory Smoked Chicken Wings on the Weber Kettle

We start this recipe with some chicken wings separated into drums and flats. I prepared a simple brine of water, soy sauce, brown sugar, kosher salt, and some local honey. I heated the brine up until everything dissolved and then added ice to bring the temperature back down. I put the wings in a large bowl and poured the brine over them. I let the wings soak in the brine for about 4 hours in the fridge and then poured out the brine and rinsed them off really well. From there I patted the wings dry with some paper towels and then coated them with olive oil followed by a good coating of Killer Hogs AP seasoning. I then placed the wings on the grill over indirect heat and added a chunk of hickory wood to smoke them. I had both the bottom and top dampers wide open and I let the wings go for 15 minutes and then turned them over to smoke for another 15 minutes.
