Smoked BBQ turkey wings served

Smoked BBQ Turkey Wings

Smoked BBQ turkey wings are a truly special dish, combining the rich flavor of turkey meat with American BBQ techniques. The natural fat content of turkey wings harmonizes particularly well with the smoky and caramelized flavors brought to life by the BBQ glaze. Turkey meat is traditionally a popular ingredient on holiday tables, but it's also gaining increasing popularity in the American BBQ world. The smoke of applewood or hickory particularly enhances the natural flavor of the turkey, while the honey and smoked paprika create a sweet and smoky balance. This dish is the perfect choice for an authentic BBQ party, family barbecue, or even a festive table. If you're craving a truly authentic BBQ experience, serve it with grilled vegetables and a portion of coleslaw!

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash and pat dry the turkey wings. Season generously with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and ground cumin.

    2

    Refrigerate the seasoned turkey wings for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

    3

    Preheat your smoker or grill to 225-250°F (110-120°C), and prepare your chosen wood chips for smoking.

    4

    Place the turkey wings on the smoker rack and smoke for 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

    5

    In a small bowl, combine the honey, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar.

    6

    Once the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F (75°C), brush with the glaze. Continue smoking for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 175°F (80°C).

    7

    Remove the turkey wings from the smoker and let them rest for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

    8

    Serve with grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or roasted potatoes.
