Breaded & Smoked Hot Wings

[Old Dave]

Got an early start this morning with some hot wings.



Made up the egg wash and then the hot breading and prepped my hot wings.



Placed them in the fridge for about an hour so the breading can set up before I cook them.

Fired up a half chimney of lump charcoal and waited for it to get right.



While the charcoal was getting right, I made up my hot sauce.



This cook was done in my Weber Jumbo Joe with the Mini Vortex holding the charcoal.





I used a piece of hickory for the smoke and just cooked my hot wings until they were done.



Just off the kettle.





Now, I am ready for some football!

Those look great. Incredible how the crust looks with the egg wash and breading.

What's in the "hot breading?

[JDD]

Wow those really look good!

Tried breading on wings with the vertex but not an egg wash before it....yet. Beauty looking food.

I'm with @MrHoss!  Haven't tried an egg wash on vortex wings...yet. 

@Old Dave  Those look amazing and give an even more deep fried appearance than using just flour.

Mr Jack Fate, this is the breading recipe I use for this treat. Will bread about 20-25 pieces.

1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp ground cayenne pepper (or less if you can't stand the heat)

Now, as a chili-head, I double the last 5 ingredients in the recipe.

Hot Sauce

1 cup Louisiana hot sauce
1/4 stick melted butter
1/8 cup honey
1/8 cup Rooster
2 TBL Tabasco
2 tsp ground cayenne pepper

Pretty work

I tried your recipe, (minus some of the chile, my family can't handle) and it is a winner. Crispy outside and lots of flavor.
