how long to bake smoked turkey wings

The baking time for smoked turkey wings depends on a few factors, including their size and whether they are pre-smoked or you’re starting from raw. Here’s a general guide:

Pre-Smoked Turkey Wings

If you’re baking pre-smoked turkey wings (purchased from a store or already smoked), you just need to reheat them. Here’s how:

  • Temperature: 350°F (175°C)
  • Time: 15–25 minutes (turning halfway through)
  • Internal Temperature: Ensure they reach 165°F (74°C) for food safety.

Raw Turkey Wings

If you’re starting with raw turkey wings and want to smoke them in the oven:

  • Temperature: 275–300°F (135–150°C)
  • Time: 2–2.5 hours (or until tender)
  • Suggestion: For a crispy finish, increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 15–20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Seasoning: Rub with spices, herbs, or sauce before baking.
  • Covering: Cover with foil to prevent drying out, especially for longer baking times.

Always use a meat thermometer to confirm doneness. Let the wings rest a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
