Cajun Hot Honey Garlic Parmesan Wings

“These wings are the perfect storm of smoky, spicy, sweet, and savory—seasoned with Cajun spice, smoked low and slow on the Yoder, then tossed in a hot honey garlic glaze and crisped to finish. Lastly, they were topped with Parmesan for that final salty-smooth finish.”

INGREDIENTS

Wings:
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1/4 cup pickle juice (for marinade)
  • 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste (optional, based on seasoning blend)
  • 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional garnish)
  • For the Hot Honey Garlic Sauce:
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional for extra heat)
  • INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Marinate for Tenderness: Marinate wings overnight in pickle juice. This step infuses tangy flavor and creates extra tender, juicy wings.

    2. Season and Smoke: Pat wings dry. Toss in olive oil and Cajun seasoning. Preheat your Yoder YS640s to 250°F. Smoke wings for 1.5–2 hours, until internal temp reaches 165°F.

    3. Make the Sauce: In a saucepan, melt butter. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in honey, hot sauce, and red pepper flakes. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 3–5 minutes.

    4. Crisp to Finish: Toss smoked wings in sauce, then air fry at 400°F for 5–8 minutes until the skin is crispy and caramelized.
    5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with Parmesan and fresh parsley. Serve immediately, extra sauce on the side.

     

    Pro Tip:
    Pickle juice overnight = next-level tenderness. AND finishing wings in the air fryer gives you that perfect crisp without sacrificing juicy meat or smoky flavor.
