Smoked Chicken Wings

Last week TLW found on The BBQ Forum a very easy recipe for chicken wings:
1 C ketchup
1/4 C dijon mustard
1/4 C hot sauce (we like Chalula)
1/4 C soy sauce
1 T brown sugar
The General combined all the ingredients and let the wings marinate overnight. I made a mistake because I should have made up an extra batch of the sauce for basting, but I used our BBQ sauce for a finishing coat. I cooked them over indirect heat to an internal temperature of 170* The end result was that they were mighty tasty but lacked the crispiness of wings that are fried. I thought that perhaps next time I might throw them in hot oil in the black iron skillet or (easier)…putting them over direct heat to finish them.
I then had to remind myself that everything one cooks does not always come out perfectly the first time. I will definitely try again!
