Smoked Chicken Wings

The smoked chicken wings on the bbq are a staple of American cuisine, but kitchens around the world prepare chicken wings on the bbq, like the Chinese style where they are marinated in sesame oil, hoisin sauce, grated ginger, Char Siu sauce, a Chinese barbecue sauce and finally glazed with honey. They can be accompanied with grilled vegetables or baked potatoes, depending on the season, even with grilled fennel and grilled pumpkin. The smoked chicken wings can also be prepared in the oven, using the grill function and occasionally glazing the chicken wings with bbq sauce.
