2
whole turkey wings (approximately 3 lb.)

poultry rub

1 tbsp.
Kosher salt
1 tsp.
onion powder
1 tsp.
garlic powder

dried parsley
1/2 tsp.
dried oregano
1/4 tsp.

1Food Prep

First, prepare your wings — turkey wings have 3 sections: the wing tip, the middle joint and the drumette. You can grill your turkey wings whole, but if you’d rather separate them, it’s easy to do.
Next, in a small bowl, combine the dry ingredients and prepare your poultry rub.
Finally, season your wings with the poultry rub.

3The Cook

- When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
- Place the turkey wing sections on the hot side of the grill and cook for approximately 5 minutes per side until browned and crisp.
- Then, move the turkey wing sections to the cool side of the grill.
- Cover the grill, and allow the wings to smoke for about 40 minutes, until cooked through, and have reached an internal temperature of at least 165°F on a digital meat thermometer.
- Apply your favorite BBQ sauce to the wings and allow them to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce is sticky.
