Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 lbs chicken wings
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon granulated onion
1/4 teaspoon dried chipotle powder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Bourbon
1 tablespoon unsulphured molasses (light)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
hickory chips, 2 handfuls, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes

Steps:

In a large bowl mix the rub ingredients. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat them evenly.
Heat grill for indirect cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F).
In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over high heat, bring the glaze ingredients to a boil and cook just until the butter melts. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool.
Drain and scatter the wood chips over lit charcoal. Grill the wings over indirect heat, with the lid closed, 20 to 30 minutes, turning and basting with the glaze once or twice during the last 20 minutes of cooking.
