Start by prepping the wings. Make a cut at the joint between the drum and the flat of the wing, then separate the joint and cut through. set the drumstick aside. Make a small cut in between the 2 bones to separate them. Twist the smaller bone until it releases and remove it. Finally, push the meat down to expose the remaining bone and carefully bend at the joint where it connects to the flap of the wing and remove it.
Repeat this process, so all the wing flats are deboned. Stuff each flat with half a stick of mozzarella string cheese. Rub the wings and drumsticks down with a light coat of olive oil and season with kosher salt and Italian seasoning.
Preheat the smoker to 300 degrees F. Cook for about 90 minutes until the wings have reached an internal temperature of about 185-190 degrees F.
To prepare the vodka sauce, add all ingredients to a sauce pot and simmer over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes just until warm, then serve with wings.
