Steps

  • Step 1

    When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 350℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. Line a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick foil or parchment paper.

    350 ˚F / 177 ˚C

  • Step 2

    Segment the wings into three pieces, cutting through the joints. Discard the wing tips or save to make chicken stock. Season the flats and drumettes well with Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub, then arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, spacing evenly.

Add the honey and hot sauce and cook until completely combined, 2-3 minutes more. Remove the pot from the heat and cover to keep the sauce warm until the wings finish cooking.
