    They look nice, but I can't help but ask who only cooks 8 wings?

    looks sooo good - the non sauced look so crispy I would have guess fried, if not sitting on your BGE.  What’s your process ??

    This guy is a master of restraint and subtlety... And he cooks chicken like nobody’s business...
    I agree with you - I’d be like, “8 is enough was a TV show, not a meal.”

    Me.  Lol.  I guess I should’ve used the Mini so the egg would look fuller.

    Thawed out, dried with paper towel, rub and cook 400-425 indirect raised up high in the dome on the extender.  No frills no tricks

    The truth is - I honestly assumed you did.

    @Mattman3969 I have done super raised direct ~400-425 twice with wings now, and great crisp both times.  Easy & results are great.  Just saying thanks !

    EDIT just read you go indirect - well I’ll try that next time I guess lol

    Those wings look tremendous. I'll agree with a few of the posters above when I say that it takes the same amount of work to Egg 8 wings as it does 16... or 24. Impressive restraint.

    @caliking What do you think about glazing wings in the chili oil you and Cen Tex posted ?

    I think you'd love them. I did some wings recently, and tossed them in a sauce of chili oil, chinkiang vinegar, honey, pepper after they smoked for a while. Back on the heat to get crispy,  and set the sauce/glaze.  Wonderful sweet heat kind of thing, with that combo. 

    That chili oil really is good on just about anything.
