Anytime I smoke something new I’m always praying this guy has a video for it 😂. So helpful getting me introduced into smoking.

Thank you so much!

Made smoked wings last night and pretty much followed your video and the wings came out great. One thing I did differently which isn't bad...it just prolonged cook time was that I smoked at 180 for about 30 minutes before starting to turn the heat up. We wanted a bit more smokey flavor and don't have a smoke tube or smoke box yet. So far I have noticed we get a lot more smoke at 180 then we do at 220-250. Other then that we followed your instructions pretty much to the letter and the wings were awesome. Great video and thanks for all of your content. Later in the week we will be trying your smoked whole chicken video.

I actually helped Komos Q with some shipping, and gave me a bunch of wing dusts as thanks, and they are by far my favorite. I highly recommend.

I typically use some olive oil on my wings prior to seasoning and cooking. They come out crispy enough for my liking.

@madbackyard

Жыл бұрын

If that works for you then keep doing it!! I would use olive oil cooking them on a ripping hot flat top griddle or cast iron or something like that so they wouldn’t stick. But for me on a pellet grill I find they have enough fat in the wings to crisp up without needing to add additional oil. Thanks for watching!

Great video, looks like a great feed for the family

New to your channel and finding the videos extremely helpful. Thanks for sharing. Nearly all the other “wing” videos I have watched start & finish at much higher heat in the 350° range. At 350° they come out ok, but lack that smoke flavor. Will be trying your method this weekend. 👍🏻👍🏻

Great video and very detailed. I don't have my Traeger anymore; 15 years of constant use and the metal was flaking off. So, I invested in a charcoal grill (MGrills M16 to be exact). Love it and use only lump charcoal and wood chunks depending on what I'm cooking. Can't go wrong with Kosmo's wing dust either. I will try your method and rubs and sauce because the CFB playoffs are right around the corner. Let's get to cookin' !! 😀

Interesting finding. You mentioned the center being the hottest area. I was watching another video and he put biscuits all over the inside and ran it for 20 minutes or so. Then he flipped them over to see which were browning more than the others. In his smoker they were not in the center. It's a neat trick to check since all smokers aren't the same.

Hello, your videos are amazing. Thank you. I just purchased my new pitboss charleston pellet grill and griddle combo. Question: Do you ever put foil on the bottom for easier cleaning? Also, how often do you clean your grill?

@madbackyard

2 ай бұрын

No, I wouldn't put foil directly on or over the flame broiler because it can adhere to it with high heat and then be a mess to clean up. If you really want to limit clean up, try a wire rack over a foil lined baking sheet like we do in a lot of our pit boss videos. I do a deep clean once a season. Check out that video here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mHiFtsptd8unmpM.html. I vacuum dust out of the bottom and wipe down the temperature probe and grease chute every 4-5 cooks, and I clean the grates and empty the ash out of fire pot every time I cook. Check out that video here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dmxpudeIktu5n7g.html. Hope that helps, thanks for watching!

Great video! Question- do you have to re-prime the auger after you change out your pellets?

@madbackyard

2 күн бұрын

Hi Ashley- no you don’t have to. Yes, the old pellets will still be in the auger but they will mostly run through and burn off during the start up cycle on your next cook and then the new pellets you’ve added to the hopper will start feeding in. So no need to empty out the entire auger and re-prime just for changing pellets. Hope that helps, thanks!

What

Try baking soda instead of baking powder.

@madbackyard

10 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching! There seem to be differing opinions on this across the web. From what I've read, straight baking soda works more intensely to crisp up the skin but can give your chicken an off flavor if you accidentally use too much. Baking powder works as well, although you do need a little more of it because it doesn't work as strongly as the straight baking soda, but the flavor is neutral. I've always used baking powder on chicken wings and whole chickens and turkeys, etc and had good results and never noticed any off flavors, but I may experiment with baking soda in the future as well. Thanks!

@Shoyebi

Baking soda should be left on overnight to "velvet" the meat and then washed off the next day -- or can be done with a "soak" of dissolved baking soda for around an hour. Adding baking powder to a dry brine/rub is a "quick and dirty" way to improve the crispiness with less preparation.

@DanLivingston

10 ай бұрын

@@Shoyebi I add some into my wet brine the night before. I let it dry on a rack, with no rinse. Seems to not effect the flavor and makes it super crispy

That was literally about 1/8th of a teaspoon of baking powder.

I did exactly what he said, bad timing and it was bad temperature. Not good at all. Save your time and do another recipe, don’t cook it on 220, or cook it as long as he says. Not worth it!!! I do better cooking it on 350 to start with. Please don’t cook it like he said!!

Hey i used this video to smoke chicken wings for the first time on a traegger tailgater. They turned out fantastic..everything you could ever want in a chicken wing but little to no smoke flavor.

Hi Mikey- thanks for watching and glad they turned out well otherwise! I might try a different brand of pellet next time. I’ve been getting better smoke flavor recently with knotty wood, lumberjack, and even expert grill brand pellets. Also check out our recent videos on using a pellet tube smoker or the one about making a firebox in a pellet grill to use wood chunks for more smoke flavor as well. Thanks!

Great video, dude!! I've tried several times to get crispy wings on my Pit Boss XL with little success. I'm going to try your method tomorrow! 2 things about the Pit Boss: 1. The grate over the hopper is pretty useless. I cut out the middle on mine (makes it easier to push pellets toward the auger) or even remove it completely. 2. Remind your viewers when starting a Pit Boss, or ANY pellet grill, to open the lid. I found out the hard way it's not safe otherwise. Close the lid AFTER you start to get smoke. Otherwise I'm a happy new subscriber to your channel!!!!!!!!!!!!
