This method worked well for us this past weekend. We had to turn out 40 lbs of chicken wings. We lined cookie sheets with foil, placed a rack on top, sprayed the rack. Drained wing sections, tossed with oil(small amount of sesame, but Newman's Dressing would be fine, Bill), then we rubbed them and started up smoker. While it was coming to heat, we laid out the wings on the racks. We started 1st wings to go out on the bottom rack, next batch up one rack and so on. Temp was at high heat. When we took one sheet of wings out of FE we moved the next ones down and put a new sheet on top. As soon as one sheet was removed it was dipped in sauce and moved to public. The skin was crispy and brown and the meat was so juicy, it would spray out a bit when we took them off the grids.

I just wanted to share with you all, and thank Bill for helping me with this.

Thanks,
Peggy

big dog,
the wings we used were called jumbo wings which we got from our food supplier. wings were already jointed with no tips..but they were huge!!
the time varied somewhat but was about 30 mins per load (load being the bottom rack)
temp was the 400 setting
pellets were a mix of bbq'ers delight with the mix being 50% oak 25% sherry and 25% pecan.
once we got started it was about 15 mins per rack give or take.
like peg said i shuffled each pan down one rack and added a new one to the top.
she posted the complete recipe under open forum thread "has anyone smoked chicken wings."
by the way she was so busy selling after the stage anounced our placing that we really did 60 pounds of wings but dont tell her lol
also we used the cooking technique ocala bill taught us. without him and nina we would still be struggling so thanks bill and the dixie chicks.
by the way if you line your cookie sheet with foil all you have to do is throw more wings on the rack and put that over your cookie sheet.
the racks i used were draining racks for standard 2" hotel pans.
hope this helps you
jack
