Smoked Chicken Wings with Bacon Coleslaw à la Maria Kroll. Outdoor cooking at its best and everything tastes good outdoors.
Chicken Wings
900 g (2 lbs) chicken wings
1 tsp paprika powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper
½ tsp cumin
1–2 tsp muscovado sugar
½ tsp salt
½ tsp garlic powder
Butter (for basting)
Creamy Red Bacon Coleslaw
½ red cabbage, thinly sliced
1–2 packs bacon
50 ml (¼ cup) crème fraîche
½ tbsp apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper
For serving
BBQ sauce
Grilled corn
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels
to remove excess moisture.
In a bowl, mix paprika powder, cayenne pepper,
cumin, muscovado sugar, salt, and garlic powder.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides
of the chicken wings.
Preheat the smoker to around 120–125°C (250–260°F)
and use your choice of smoking wood chips. Apple or
cherry wood chips are recommended for a mild and
fruity smoke flavor.
Place the wings on the smoker rack, ensuring they don’t overlap.
Brush them with melted butter and smoke for about 60 minutes,
or until they are tender and have a nice smoked color.
Meanwhile, prepare the coleslaw. Thinly slice the red cabbage
and place it in a bowl. Sprinkle lightly with salt and add apple cider vinegar.
Massage the cabbage gently with your hands to soften it.
Cut the bacon into small pieces and fry until crispy.
Drain on paper and let cool.
Mix the softened red cabbage with crème fraîche
and crispy bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve the smoked chicken wings with coleslaw,
a rich BBQ sauce, and grilled corn.
