Ingredients
- 1 lb Chicken wings
- 2 tbsp Jerk seasoning blend (allspice, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, cinnamon, nutmeg)
- 1 small Scotch bonnet pepper
- 1 tbsp Fresh lime juice
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the jerk seasoning, minced scotch bonnet (or finely diced if you prefer less heat), lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to form a paste.
- 2
Add the chicken wings to the bowl, toss to coat evenly, and let them marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes while you preheat the smoker to 250°F (120°C).
- 3
Place the wings on the smoker rack, ensuring they are not touching, and smoke for 40 minutes, turning once halfway through for even cooking.
- 4
Remove the wings, increase the smoker temperature to 375°F (190°C) or finish them on a hot grill for 5‑7 minutes to crisp the skin.
- 5
Let the wings rest for 2 minutes, then serve hot with extra lime wedges if desired.
