Ingredients:

• 3 lbs turkey wings
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
• Wood chips for smoking (hickory or applewood work well)

Instructions:

Preparing the Marinade:

1. Whisking the Marinade:
   • In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using.
2. Marinating the Turkey Wings:
   • Place the turkey wings in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the wings, ensuring they are well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.

Smoking the Turkey Wings:

1. Preparing the Smoker:
   • Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Add wood chips to enhance the smoky flavor.
2. Draining and Patting Dry:
   • Remove the turkey wings from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Pat the wings dry with paper towels.
3. Smoking Process:
   • Place the turkey wings on the smoker racks. Smoke for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. Basting (Optional):
   • If desired, baste the wings with the remaining marinade during the smoking process to add extra flavor.
5. Resting and Serving:
   • Allow the smoked turkey wings to rest for a few minutes before serving. This ensures the juices redistribute for maximum tenderness.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Serve the Smoked Turkey Wings hot and savor the unique smoky flavor. They are perfect on their own or paired with your favorite dipping sauces
