my must-haves for traeger chicken wings
If you are going to make Traeger chicken wings, you obviously need a Traeger grill. The one I’ve linked here has been on our patio for almost a decade now and it still hums along perfectly (with proper cleanings and maintenance, of course). There are a bunch of Traeger pellet grills to chose from depending on the size you are looking for! I love that you can use different types of pellets to get different flavors infused into your grilled dishes. You can always start with Traeger grill signature pellets as a starting point, then expand out to their collection of cherry, hickory, and more.
To prepare the wings, grab your favorite chicken rub (this smoky and savory bbq chicken rub is our favorite!) and a large bowl from your set of mixing bowls as well. This is the easiest way to coat the chicken wings, without using your fingers.
A set of grill prep and serve trays are excellent to have on hand for carrying out raw wings to the grill and loading them off the grill. You’ll also need a set of grill tongs! Finally, this mop brush set is fantastic for mopping sauce onto the wings as well as other meats. Of course you can always just use a silicone brush for adding the sauce to the chicken wings on the grill.
To keep your grill clean, be sure to have a Traeger brush and grill cleaner.

just one more thing
When it comes to getting down on a big plate of Traeger chicken wings, you’ll want a tasty beverage to go along with it. Here are some of my favorite drinks to serve alongside wings:
- A refreshing sparkling whiskey sour or a lemon basil cocktail are both refreshing concoctions that only have four ingredients.
- If you love something a little spicy and tart, try a spicy salty dog with fresh grapefruit juice.
- For a fruity cocktail, a strawberry gin smash is the ultimate summery drink.
- If you are looking for a nonalcoholic option, either a sparkling arnold palmer or watermelon agua fresca is an ideal pairing for savory wings.
- For serving a crowd, be sure to make a big batch of this spiced rum punch! It’s citrusy and tangy, with just the right amount of warming spices.
