Instructions
Preheat the smoker to 225 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the smoker is heating, prepare the chicken wings by patting them dry with a paper towel.
In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over all sides of the chicken wings, ensuring each wing is well-coated.

Once the wings are done, remove them from the smoker and immediately toss them in the hot sauce and lime juice mixture until evenly coated.
Serve the smoked chicken wings warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or an extra squeeze of lime.
