(Probably) The Best Chicken Wings Ever.
One man. One Egg. One obsession: perfecting the dry-rub smoked chicken wing.

Smoked Chicken Wings is dedicated to helping humanity experience (probably) the world’s best wings.
This entire site exists for one purpose: to perfect the smoked chicken wing and share everything I’ve learned along the way. No flashy varieties. No 47 sauces. No unnecessary complications.
Just one perfected wing — according to several people I trust.
My name’s Nick. These wings changed my life. Literally. I traded in breaded, fried, sauced-to-oblivion wings for a simple dry-rubbed wing cooked low and slow. Along the way, I lost over 100 pounds, gained a weekly standing order with my local butcher, and smoked, eaten, critiqued, and gifted thousands of wings since receiving a pandemic Father’s Day smoker.
If you’re here, you’re officially part of the wing journey. Buckle up.
The Process Summarized
The Rub Matters
Sugar-free, balanced, built for crisp skin. I mix big batches and shake until every wing is perfectly coated — usually while blasting Counting Crows.
Technique Rules Everything
No skipping preheat. No crowding the grill. No cheating the flip schedule. Yes to airflow, even heat, and knowing your smoker’s hot spots like your children.
Sauce Goes On The Side
Always. Forever. You can dip. You can drizzle. You can ignore the sauce completely. But what you won’t find here? A soggy wing.
