These Smoked Spicy Garlic Parm Wings bring together smoky chicken, spicy garlic flavor, rich Parmesan, and a buttery finish for one seriously addictive wing.
The wings start with Kosmos Q Garlic Jalapeño Rub before hitting the smoker low and slow. Once they reach that magic 206°F internal temperature, they're tossed in melted butter and generously coated with Kosmos Q Garlic Parmesan Wing Dust for an extra hit of savory, cheesy flavor.
They're incredibly easy to make, packed with flavor, and perfect for game day, backyard gatherings, or anytime you're craving wings with a little extra kick. Let's get to it.
4 lbs chicken wings
3 tablespoons melted butter
Freshly grated Parmesan, optional
Chopped parsley, optional
Pat the 4 pounds of chicken wings dry with paper towels.
Lightly coat the wings with oil, making sure they're evenly covered.
Generously season all sides of the wings with Kosmos Q Garlic Jalapeño Rub.
Give the wings a good toss to make sure every piece is evenly seasoned.
Now you've got the spicy garlic flavor locked in and the wings are ready for the smoker.
Preheat your smoker to 275°F.
Once the smoker is up to temperature, place the seasoned wings directly on the cooking grate.
Leave a little space between each wing so the smoke can circulate around them and they can cook evenly.
Smoke the wings at 275°F until they begin to develop great color and the fat starts to render.
Continue smoking until the wings reach an internal temperature of 206°F.
This is the key to the perfect smoked wing. At 206°F, the fat and connective tissue have rendered down, giving you tender, juicy meat that pulls clean from the bone.
Once the wings hit 206°F, remove them from the smoker and get ready for the buttery Parmesan finish.
Immediately place the hot wings in a large bowl.
Lightly toss the wings with 3 tablespoons of melted butter, making sure each wing gets a light coating.
Generously season the wings with Kosmos Q Garlic Parmesan Wing Dust.
Toss everything together until the butter and Garlic Parmesan Wing Dust coat every wing.
The combination of melted butter and that garlicky, cheesy seasoning gives these wings a rich finish that pairs perfectly with the smoky, spicy flavor underneath.
Give the wings one more light shake of Kosmos Q Garlic Parmesan Wing Dust.
For an extra cheesy finish, top the wings with freshly grated Parmesan.
Add a sprinkle of chopped parsley if desired for a little fresh flavor and color.
Arrange the wings on a serving platter and serve them hot.
Make sure to grab plenty because these smoky, spicy, buttery, garlic-Parmesan wings won't last long.
Smoky, spicy, buttery, and loaded with garlic-Parmesan flavor, these wings check all the right boxes.
The Garlic Jalapeño Rub brings the heat and savory garlic flavor, while the melted butter and Garlic Parmesan Wing Dust create a rich, cheesy coating that makes every bite seriously satisfying.
They're easy to make, require just a handful of ingredients, and are perfect for game day, backyard cookouts, parties, or anytime you want wings with big smoky flavor.
