Cook time: 90 minutes

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings, separated into flats and drums
• 0 Caribeque Honey Heat seasoning
• 1 can whole-berry cranberry sauce
• 0.5 cup bottled chili sauce, such as Heinz
• 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
• 0 cayenne pepper
• 0 garlic powder
• 0 smoked paprika

Instructions

1. Preheat your smoker to 300°F.
2. Pat the wings thoroughly dry, then season all over with Caribeque Honey Heat.
3. Place directly on the smoker grates, leaving space between each wing. Smoke for 45–60 minutes, flipping halfway through.
4. Meanwhile, combine all glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir for 3–5 minutes, until warmed through and combined.
5. Once the wings reach approximately 165°F internally, brush with the cranberry glaze.
6. Continue smoking for 10–20 minutes, until the glaze is sticky and the wings reach 175–185°F for tender meat.
7. Remove and serve! Reserve some glaze before brushing if you want extra sauce for dipping.
