00:00I'm John Barker, a.k.a. your grandma's favorite pitmaster, a.k.a. the Million Dollar Barbecue
00:05Man, and today we're going to make the best chicken wings that you've ever had.
00:19Guys, getting super crispy chicken wings on your smoker is easy, and you need very little
00:23for it.
00:23We're going to use some OG Barbecue Rub from Skull and Mortar.
00:27You can get that at SkullandMortar.com.
00:29We're going to use a little bit of Smokin' Simmons brisket rub.
00:32You can use any AP rub that you have on hand, some cooking spray, and some of that Skull
00:37and Mortar OG Barbecue sauce.
00:39Let me show you how easy this is, guys.
00:41First off, you take your spray can and put a little fat on those wings.
00:45That's going to help your rub adhere.
00:48Okay, we're going to go over it with some of that brisket rub.
00:52We want a light coating here.
00:54Don't get too out of control.
00:56Something light just like that.
00:58Then we're going to go back over it with the Skull and Mortar Barbecue Rub.
01:02Now, this is going to help with the color.
01:04This is going to help with all those peppery notes, that richness of flavor, and this is
01:07where you want to get it a little bit heavier.
01:11Now, these flavors together are really going to work out.
01:14They're going to be perfect.
01:16They're going to hit every flavor profile, really.
01:23Toss your wings over to the other side.
01:27Guys, then we literally are just doing the same thing to the other side.
01:31Spray.
01:32The spray is going to help with the crispiness.
01:34It's going to help with that rub adhering.
01:38Boom.
01:39Good little dusting of that.
01:41Make sure you get it all over your table.
01:43It would not be a Skull and Mortar tutorial if we were not getting rub every damn wire and
01:49then having to spend six hours cleaning it up afterwards.
01:53Guys, that's it, man.
01:55That's all the pre-prep this takes.
01:56We're going to take these directly to our auto-ignite and throw them on.
02:00You can do this on any grill or smoker.
02:02We're using the master built auto-ignite.
02:06All right, we've got our auto-ignite set to 300 degrees.
02:09As you can tell, we've been cooking a lot on this bad boy.
02:12Love this grill.
02:18We're going to start stacking these away from the firebox.
02:22That's going to make it a little bit cooler.
02:24The closer we get to the firebox, the hotter it's going to get.
02:28Again, we want to keep our grill and our meat at about 300 degrees.
02:32We're cooking on that high temperature because it's going to help render that fat.
02:35It's going to help get the outside crispy.
02:37If you cook it any lower than 300, you're going to run into that soggy skin.
02:42And that's the one thing we do not want.
02:44All right, guys, that's it.
02:45We're going to throw it on here.
02:46We're going to check it every hour or so until we reach our internal temperature.
02:50And that's it, man.
03:06Guys, our wings are done.
03:07Our skin is exactly how we want them.
03:09They are hot.
03:10We're going to take some of that OG barbecue sauce from Skull and Mortar and we're just
03:14going to drop that right there in the bowl on top of our wings.
03:19And then we're just going to toss the wings around.
03:25Add a little bit more sauce here.
03:29See that steam coming off of them?
03:31These bad boys are fresh off the smoker.
03:33I like to get the sauce on them directly when they come out of the smoker because I feel
03:37like the sauce kind of caramelizes on there.
03:40Look at that.
03:43Look at that falling apart.
03:46Let's try that guy right there.
03:47That looks delicious.
03:49Let's have a bite.
03:52Right off the bone.
03:54Mmm.
03:55It's juicy.
03:56It's moist.
03:56It's sweet.
03:57It's spicy.
03:58It's literally, it's perfect.
04:01Guys, it's literally that easy to make a delicious crispy smoked chicken wing on any smoker.
04:07We use the auto ignite for master built.
04:09We ran our chicken wings at 300 degrees for two hours, bumped it up to 350 and let it run
04:14another 30 minutes.
04:16It literally was that simple.
04:17We used a salt and pepper rub.
04:19We used a barbecue rub.
04:20We use some spray oil.
04:21We tossed it all on.
04:23And then finally at the end, when we were all done, we tossed in some barbecue sauce and
04:26we got perfect barbecue wings.
04:28I'm going to go ahead and have another.
04:29I'll see you guys soon with a brand new video, skullandmortar.com, for all your culinary
04:34needs.
04:37I don't think it's good, it's real good.
04:43I'd kiss myself on the lips if I could, that's how good it is.
04:59We'll see you then.
04:59And then we're, I love you again.
05:00I'm going to go.
