Top 5 Chicken Wings in Pigeon Forge

Chicken wings are standard Southern fare, so it stands to reason you'll want to try the best of the best during your stay in Pigeon Forge. Here are five spots worth seeking out.

1. Blue Moose Burgers and Wings

Pigeon Forge's only dedicated family sports grill is famous for its wings as much as its burgers, with jumbo-sized wings available in 16 different flavors so pickier eaters can find their favorite. Pair them with a game on one of the many TVs for a classic sports-bar night out.

2. Local Goat

One of Pigeon Forge's newer restaurants, Local Goat serves a scratch-made menu built around locally sourced ingredients — and their chicken wings come glazed in Tennessee whiskey for a genuinely Southern twist.

3. Smoky Mountain Brewery

Between the nightly entertainment, house-brewed beer, and full menu, Smoky Mountain Brewery is worth a stop on its own — but the wings here stand out thanks to the Thunder Road Sauce, whether you order it as a dipping side, glazed on, or both.

4. Calhoun's

Calhoun's leans into a rustic mountain-lodge atmosphere, all wood paneling and crackling fires, and serves smoked wings finished with a housemade barbecue sauce that fits right in with the setting.

5. Bennett's Pit Bar-B-Que

Bennett's Pit is best known for barbecue, but its smaller, hickory-smoked wings are a genuine standout — double-smoked so the meat soaks up extra flavor throughout the cooking process.
