Directions

  1. Heat a smoker to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C) according to manufacturer's directions.

  2. Mix 1 tablespoon salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning in a small bowl to make dry rub. Sprinkle over chicken wings.

  6. Transfer smoked wings to a large bowl, stir in 1/2 of the sauce until wings are evenly coated.
