ahh you youngins..in the Falls  in the 70's, a staple of every pizzeria was 50 wings for $5.00, delivered!

 

BTW, the wings at Costco are priced right, come separated, but damn they have been getting smaller and smaller last couple of years.

 

Dont trust @Augieon any of his food opinions, obviously the man has no taste.

 

And it's not Buffalo water that makes the crust(buffalo pizza crust sucks:P ) , it's NYC water that makes NYC pizza awesome. Proved out by the bagels being the best in NYC as well, both due to the water.

 

Cannoli shells too.  Fun fact, most NYC water comes from my neck of the woods.  That's the real reason NY will never separate into two states.

 

That all being said, I spoke to a bubbe in a jewish deli in Nassau county once who said that her bagels taste the same wherever she makes them.

Proof its the water

 

 

 

You have proven that the NYC guys like what they like and what they are used to...and they also think they are the center of the universe, but that’s more of a science matter.

so listen you two fools..we all agree NYC pizza, especially the crust, is the best in the world. This proves what makes it different is the water. I understand hard for a Xavier graduate to grasp that concept, and well Levi just to young to understand much of anything in the world.

Went to Primanti Brothers for lunch yesterday and 15 wings were $14.59. Also for some reason I get annoyed at places that don't have the option of a dozen wings. I don't want 10 or 15. I want 12.

 

12 is a harder # to find here...

 

a single order is usually 10 and a double 20

i swear pizza delivery drivers in Buffalo make so much $$$ if your at a good spot lol

 

my friends kid makes almost 50 grand a year as a driver lol 

When I worked at Chevy..a fella from La Nova would have a full car load of deliveries for our 9pm lunch break. I used to always give a fin for a tip..for sheet pizzas/wing buckets..would all chip in 5 each as well...guy probably left with about a 100 bucks tax free for one stop..6 nights a week.Sure he made stops to Dunlop and Dupont as well .Tax Free baby...

That is a popular and enduring myth.

^^^ that article was too long to read, but I did skim and it did not appear that Kenji used NYC water..so you can join @LeviF91and @Augie as failing to grasp a simple concept!:doh::lol:

 

btw, i love Kenji and Serious eats

 

Put on your reading glasses, old man.  The experiment was done in NYC...and he used tap water :rolleyes:

I love going to the wing fest downtown every year 

 

you will find amazing wings from all over the country! Not just Buffalo

Of course you can.

All MOST restaurants do is drop them in the fryer for 15 to 20 minutes.

 

Once done, toss them in a combination of Frank's( or a cheaper substitute) and liquid margarine.

 

It drives me nuts that people think there is such a difference.

 

Here is a hint from someone has worked in restaurants and been a Chef.

 

99% of the crap we throw the fryer people love because it  is just oozing with fat and terrible for you.

In Buffalo you can throw an old shoe in the fryer and people would devour it.

Enjoy!

Sorry, but Franks can be purchased by food brokers around the country.
