Welcome to Big Daddy's Barbecue Pit.

Prepare 6 pounds of large party chicken wings.

Lightly coat the wings with Killer Hogs barbecue rub, ensuring not to use too much due to frying later.

Preheat the Rec Tech smoker to 225°F (107°C).

Place the wings on grill mats in the smoker, leaving gaps between them.

Smoke the wings for about 1.5 hours, checking them after an hour to ensure they are cooking properly.

While the wings are smoking, prepare the buffalo sauce by melting 1 stick of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

Add 12 fluid ounces of Sweet Baby Ray's hot sauce to the melted butter and mix well.

After 1.5 hours, remove the wings from the smoker.

Heat oil in a fryer to 350°F (177°C).

Fry the wings in batches, about half a dozen at a time, for approximately 5 minutes until crispy.

Once fried, place the wings in a bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over them, tossing to coat.

Plate the wings and prepare to serve.
