Nice looking wings, now in hungry for hot wings. I am going to try this sounds like a GREAT idea.
 
Im gonna try this.  When you said 1:2 ratio,  is it 1 creole butter, 2 hot sauce?
Yes it is, but you can really do whatever you want. I use creole butter just to add a little more moister but you could go straight hot sauce, it's really just up to your taste, no hard fast rules here, play around and find what works for you.
 
Tried it and everyone loved it.  Have done it twice now.

I use AMNS w/hickory, Montreal Chicken Seasoning(outside) and Franks wing sauce(injection).

Best smoked wing recipe ever, in my opinion anyway.
 
Made a batch of these the other night and they were good but a little too salty for my taste (the Tony Chacheres has a ton of salt in it) Next time I will mix my own creole spice and leave out some of the salt. They had a good smoky flavor and the wing sauce/creole butter injection tasted great. Not bad for a first try. I'll certainly make these again.
 
That's the beauty of this, it's not a set recipe, it's just about injecting the flavors you want inside the chicken, you can do what ever matches your taste. I'm glad you tried it and hope you will tweak it to your liking. That's what I love about cooking, making it the way you like it! Everybody is different and we all have different tastes!
 
Found wings on sale for $1.99/lb. and made these this past Monday and they were AWESOME!!! Only thing I did different was using Zatarain's Creole Seasoning (a bit less sodium) and tossed them on the grill for a minute to crisp the skin a little bit more. This will be my new standard. Thanks for the recipe!!!

Thank You! I started doing the hot grill thing too and think they come out a little better/crispier. The beauty of the recipe is it's not really a recipe, you can use whatever seasoning and sauces you like, whatever tastes good to you. 
 
Yeah, next time I'm going to inject a few with the same brand (Chef Williams Cajun Injector) Teriyaki Honey and some with the Lemon Butter. The rest with get the standard treatment.

Decided to inject and smoke some wings today...turned out great!

 top rack is just Sweet Baby Rays ( for my 5 yr old)

middle is Sweet baby Rays & Creole butter sprinkled with no salt Ms dash chicken seasoning

bottom rack is Franks red hot , Creole butter and Ms Dash....

 Set on 250 for 2 hours with some hickory
 
So I tried something a little different. I have made Bacon Wrapped Turkey Bites a few times where I brined the Turkey with Cure#1 and I just love the way the Turkey comes out, so I started some wings yesterday and wasn't sure if I was going to smoke them then since my Sister made a lasagna for my Father and I. So while I was getting things ready it hit me, what would these be like if they sat in a cure for a day. I made up my usual injection of hot sauce and creole butter but I added a light 1/2 teaspoon of Cure#1, I dissolved it good in a few oz's of water then mixed everything really good. I injected the wings then put them in a ziplock and into the fridge for a day. I smoked them this afternoon with Todd's Pitmaster's Choice and I have to say they are the best I've done so far. The cure changed the texture of the meat just a little, but I love what Cure#1 does to the texture of poultry, it gives it kind of a ham texture. This might not be for everyone but if you like cured poultry you should give it a try, I know I will be doing it again! Sorry no pics but they really didn't look any different.
