Put the wings in a gallon size plastic bag. Put 2 Tbsps of the Sriracha (save 1 Tbsp for the sauce), garlic paste (or garlic powder), kosher salt, and pepper in the bag. Close the bag and massage until the chicken wings are evenly coated. Marinate at least 1 hour or overnight.

Mix the buffalo sauce with the remaining 1 Tbsp Sriracha and set aside.

Cook the chicken wings according to one of the following methods, use a thermometer to make sure they are at 170 degrees:

In the oven: Place wings on a lined baking sheet and put in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes, flip them halfway through. Brush the sauce on the wings and bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes.

In the smoker: Place the wings in a smoker set to 250 degree for 2 and a half hours. Flip them them halfway through. Brush the sauce on the wings and smoke for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.

Serve with extra sauce on the side.
