Ingredients

• 1 dozen whole wings
• 1/2 cup Blue Plate Mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning (not packet)
• 1 Tablespoon ground chipotle pepper
• 2 Tablespoons Killer Hogs TX Rub
• 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
• 1/2 cup ranch dressing

Directions

1. Prepare pellet smoker or any other grill for indirect cooking at 400°F.
2. Pat excess moisture from the wings using a paper towel. 
3. Add the ranch seasoning and chipotle pepper to a dredge shaker and stir to combine.
4. Brush Blue Plate mayo on the outside of each wing and season with Ranch/chipotle mixture followed by a light coat of the TX rub.
5. Place the wings on the smoker and cook for 45 min to 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165°F.  I highly recommend taking the wings to 195°F for better texture. 
6. Combine the buffalo sauce and ranch dressing in a bowl and serve with the wings for dipping.
