Chinese have been making dishes with Chicken Wings for hundreds of years. My wife got a 40# box of chicken wings at Restaurant Depot and a damn low price and cooks them at home using various Chinese styles. And I do not eat them with ranch sauce. Why are you the way you are? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best in other places was a bar in Charleston,SC and ones that were made by our Bills Backers group at a Bills tailgate in Oakland. What bar?

Wacka Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Don't have the faintest idea. It was almost 20 years ago. It was on a street with lots of small restaurants and bars.I was sick of eating seafood and wanted some thing different. I saw wings advertised out front. Asked if they breaded or fried them.. They said fried and they were good. Edited February 10, 2020 by Wacka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long line after long line in the blazing sun for a handful of overpriced wings .... and it’s rather difficult to eat wings while standing and holding them ... too many nonsensical eating contests on the stage ... I am probably in the minority here, but I’d rather just go to my favorite wing joint instead. I agree wholeheartedly. It’s a crappy event IMO. Wings are made at a central location and then are distributed to the vendors where they are sauced. There is zero chance of getting a crispy wing. Also the lines sucked. Crispy wings matter! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOME Without a doubt, dry wings will stay crispier for way longer than sauced wings, all other things equal. As delicious as it is, the classic buffalo wing sauce is the enemy of crispy skin. Wings with sugary glazes also fare better than wetter sauces. I add some thickening agents (xantham gum, corn starch slurry) to my standard buffalo sauce to coat the wing better and prevent soggy skin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my good friends owns a pizzeria on city lines in Sloan Lovejoy He is always doing new stuff and finding new flavors to wing it Recently he has come up with his own version of the classic buffalo wings which he does in hot medium mild Honey Garlic sriracha and they are to die for! What makes it superb is that the thick rich Sriracha does not make super soggy skin but keeps it crispier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you dip your wing in Ranch, it should be used as a suppository to teach you the error of your ways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
