I like to call these Smoked Buffalo Wings but in memory of Gary I have renamed them "Scarbelly Wings" because he loved them so much. I love Buffalo Wings but I hate when they are over-sauced and sloppy like you get in most restaurants, so I decided to put the sauce on the inside so as not to get it all over my hands and face. I have done these quite a few times and they always come out great.



I inject them with a combo of Creole Butter and Franks Hot Wing Sauce mixed about 1:2 and rub the sauce all over them









Then I sprinkle Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning all over them







And into the smoker at about 300* 







With some TBS provided by a couple of chunks of hickory







Times have varied from 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours, I just let them go until the skin starts to get crispy and they look like this









Crispy but juicy, spicy with a little heat







Thanks for looking.

THANKS Harley!

THANKS RdKnB!

When I first started getting into smoking meat I read a lot about injections and it just hit me, inject Buffalo Sauce into wings, it just has to be good so I tried it and have been hooked ever since. I don't even want to go to Hooters again.
 
Seriously good looking! I wonder if you first brined them in the injection sauce for 6 hours before doing all of the above? 
THANKS!

I don't know if that would change much being wings are so small and these are already really infused with a lot of flavor and heat but it does give me an idea for split breasts, I think it would really work with those. Guess I'm gonna have to try it.
 
 
THANKS Scar! and everybody else! Comments like these from pros like you really help the confidence level of a noob like me. 
 
WOW! I can't believe I made the banner, I didn't think I would ever make it up there. I feel very honored. THANKS to everyone for their great comments and to whoever chose to put my wings on the banner!!!
 
Hmmm, would have never thought to inject wings, I like the idea of less sloppiness and the crispy skin.
This is on my "got to try it" list.
 
They look really good. The color is awesome. I like it when a plan comes together.
