Ingredients

Instructions

In a microwave-safe bowl, blend all sauce components-except the chicken wings. Heat the mixture in the microwave for 90 seconds to meld the flavors, then stir thoroughly to combine.
Transfer wings into a large sealable plastic bag or shallow container. Coat the wings generously with about half of the prepared sauce. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator overnight for maximum flavor infusion.
Preheat your gas grill to medium-high heat. Prepare a smoking packet by wrapping wood chips in heavy-duty aluminum foil, piercing several holes for smoke ventilation. Place the packet on the grill and allow it to smolder for 5 minutes.
Position the marinated wings on the grill grates. Cover and cook, turning occasionally with tongs to achieve a lightly charred, cooked-through result-approximately 22 to 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once off the grill, transfer the wings to a serving bowl. Drizzle with the remaining sauce and gently toss to coat every piece in sticky, smoky goodness.
