Secret to Crispy Chicken Wings

The secret to making crispy chicken wings straight out of the oven or smoked, is to thoroughly dry the skin of the chicken wings.

We recommend seasoning the wings the night before you plan to cook them, then place them on a drying rack in your fridge overnight. This will allow the skin to dry even further – more than just patting them dry with a paper towel right before cooking them.

Pro Tip: Thoroughly dry the skin of the chicken wings overnight in the fridge for extra crispy wings!
