How high do yal take your internal temp.. these ended up a little higher than normal.. turned out just fine.. but I usually take them to 200°F.
That dark meat can take the heat without drying out!!!!

    I’ve never once taken the temp of wings.

    I don’t really worry about it. Low and slow until the skin looks how I like it.

    A probe is too unreliable on this thin of meat. Cook until meat pulls away from bone and grease starts to push through the skin is a good indicator. If you’re concerned, cut into one to see if the meat is white.

    I don’t know anyone who temps their chicken wings. Color and skin crisp is my only indicator they’re done.

    When the skin has a crunch instead of a pull, the insides have been safe to eat for a while.

    When the juices are clear you’re good to go

    First few times I made wings I’d temp them. Best to get over 185 since they worn dry out and are actually better at higher temps. Typically, I grill them indirect hot for 30-60 mins until the skin looks good and crispy. Those look good!

    Anywhere between 190 and 200. I know a lot of people don’t, and I don’t temp every wing, but I like the confirmation of temp in some.

  10. nothing wrong with 200 but 175 is long enough for me

    Anything over 190 works for me, closer to 200 is 🤌🏻

    Just FYI, wings aren’t dark meat, they’re white meat. They have more fat than breast meat though, so can take more of a cook than standard white meat. Wings are basically in between dark and white meat, but it’s technically still classified as white meat because it’s mostly fast-twitch fibers.
