PIZ Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Are they the best wings in Buffalo? Some tidbits I found interesting are that people take shots of the suicide sauce. Bill Clinton once had secret service go and get him 200 wings for the White House. They sure looked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 um, duh... yeah they're that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 They are THAT good. As for being the best in Buffalo I can't answer that. I don't live in Buffalo and have had wings in only a few different places in WNY. However, they are the best wings I have ever had. I had to see my father twice in Hamilton, Ont this summer(heart operation) and I flew into Buffalo both times. I was happy to see that they sell the Original Anchor Bar sauce at the airport. I picked up a 6 bottles both times to bring home. I know you can get it on the internet as well but its expensive as hell to ship it out here.

Mmmm... I never had french fries with wings before, but it works (especially dipping the fries in hot sauce too). Tasty. Thanks a lot for making me want wings again, and I have no idea when I'm getting back to WNY CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsNYC Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 You'll hear all different opinions. I was there in the summer and thought they were amazing. I was at Duffs a few weeks ago and they weren't as good as everybody says (second trip there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bossman Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I like the Original or Hotter wing sauce better than the Suicidal. They are all pretty spicy but the taste of the Suicidal has a bit of a chemical taste to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I'm a fan of Duffs (with all due respect to Anchor Bar). Duffs opened southtowns location on the West Seneca/OP border, so it is easy to get them when I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I'd eat either. I order the Anchor Bar sauce a couple times a year. Wings outside WNY ain't quite right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 No. They are NOT that good. Really, honestly, people they are not, and if you think they are, I would loooove to actually make you some. First of all, they are too small. Duff's are alot better. I am a fan of Pasquale's wings, but that is biased, as i have had them since i was little, and always have them when I am home, but they are very, very good. And the hot won't kill you like at Duffs. But, if you havnt had wings in Buffalo, go to the Anchor bar so you can say you had some wings there, then go get some that are actually good at duffs.

There's a couple places in Baltimore that have pretty decent sauce and cook their wings the right way. As for the Anchor Bar, I do like their wings a lot. Duff's too.

Between the two...i choose Duff's over AB...Anchor wings size has decreased...last time i was at Duff's, Herm Edwards anfd the Jets staff were there...guess NFL recommends Duffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Rich'n'Joisy's wings were excellent at the tailgate... CW 150501[/snapback] I'd love to try em! See, alot of people jazz up their wings and whatnot, I am purely Franks and Margerine (and I don't use butter because it burns too easily). Some people add vinegar, garlic, even chili powder. But I just deep fry em (use CLEAN oil), NO BREADING, and then take em out, let em set for a minute of some paper towels. In a sauce pan, Frank's Red hot and margering till melted. Throw the wings in, toss. Into a 350 oven for 5 minutes, and then turn the broiler on for about 45 seconds. Oh man, I just made myself so frigging hungry.

Fan in San Diego Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I got the Anchor bar sauce at Costco the last time I was there ! What a treat that is ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanNC Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 All that have been mentioned have above average wings. The best wings by far though are at the Bar-Bil Tavern in East Aurora. Huge, crispy and they brush the sauce on so they aren't served in a soup like at Duffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I got the Anchor bar sauce at Costco the last time I was there ! What a treat that is ! 150520[/snapback] Their sauce is OK, but their wings suck (small and sinewy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been fortunate enough to try them at the last two home opening tailgates and recently at "Bills Central", his house, for the Bills @ Patriots game. Good stuff!

MattyT Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Visiting San Fran a couple of years back I ordered a pizza and a dozen wings and the place had the friggin' nerve to give me......of all things...ranch dressing. Blech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
