Smoked then fried wing recipefrom @antoniolopezcooks

[01]

Overview

The creator demonstrates a multi-step recipe for making chicken wings. He starts by preparing raw wings, seasoning them, and smoking them on a Traeger grill. While they cook, he prepares a homemade dill ranch dip. After smoking, he deep-fries the wings until crispy, then prepares a buffalo sauce with butter, garlic, and honey, and finally tosses the finished wings in the sauce before plating them with fries and performing a dip test.
