A blend of garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and a few other ingredients will give your smoked chicken wings all the flavor you need to enjoy every last bite.
Combine all the dry ingredients for the seasoning rub together in a small bowl.
Separate chicken wings into drum and wing sections if not already separated.
Add chicken wing sections to a large zip-top bag. Drizzle the wing sections with olive oil and coat all sides of the wings.
Sprinkle the seasoning rub on the chicken wings, pressing the rub into the chicken to coat the outside evenly. Place in the refrigerator for one hour.
Preheat the smoker to 225°F.
Place the chicken wing sections directly onto the smoker and smoke for 2 hours at 225°F. Wings are done when they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
Serve with your choice of sauces.
Notes
You can add 1 ½ teaspoon of baking powder to the seasoning blend for a crispier skin.
