SMOKED WING NACHOS

Steps:

• For the dry rub: Stir together the paprika, salt, granulated garlic, sugar, black pepper, chile powder, dry mustard, onion powder, thyme and white pepper in a bowl.
• For the wings: Preheat a smoker or grill for cooking at indirect heat at 275 degrees F.
• Coat chicken wings with salad oil and place in smoker or grill until internal temperature of chicken wings registers 165 degrees F, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat salad oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F and fry chicken wings until the skin is crispy, 1 minute. Remove and place in a bowl. Season with dry rub until all sides are lightly coated. Add BBQ sauce to coat evenly.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place chicken wings in a 12-inch round pie dish in a single layer. Top with cheese and bacon and melt cheese in oven, about 2 minutes. Top with diced tomato, green onions, a drizzle of ranch dressing and a scoop of sour cream.

SMOKED CHICKEN NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill and split the chicken in 1/2 from head to tail. Soak the wood chips in water for about 10 minutes. This will prevent the wood chips from burning as soon as they come in contact with the fire. Place the wood chips in the bottom of a grill below the grates. Set the flame on 1 side of the grill to medium and the other side to medium high. Place the chicken, skin side up, on the medium side of the grill. Cover and allow the chicken to smoke and grill at the same time. This should take about 15 to 20 minutes. Allow the chicken to cool completely before shredding the meat off the bones. Reserve for the assembling of the nachos.
• Form an assembly line with all of the ingredients. Start with the serving dish, then the chips, chicken, tomatoes, jalapenos, sour cream, cilantro and chives. Right before they are served, remove the cheese from the freezer. Using a fine side of a box grater, shave the goat cheese over the top of the nachos.
• Chef's Note: Paper vessels can be purchased at a wholesale restaurant or party supply store. I recommend using individual serving dishes that are 5 inches by 3 inches.
