How many wings can you eat???? Allen eats a bunch apparently.

[Albany,n.y.]

I could eat a 50 wing bucket when I lived in Buffalo in the early 1980s.  If I tried that today I'd end up in the morgue.

I'd like to see how many of the hot wings he could devour at Sal's in Depew. Without question the hottest wings I've ever had. I could only eat like 3 lol 

 

OMG, I grew up walking distance from Sal's. I haven't live there in 35+ years. Back in the early 80s it was wings, pitchers of cheap beer and pool. Folks would go there just to try the extra-hot. Sal himself would bring them out, always giggling when he served them.

Cajun Honey BBQ?

 

 

Yeah, what up with that? I don’t order wings very often, because they suck every where but Buffalo. But why bother if they are not straight up Buffalo Wings with blue cheese? Is Cajun Honey BBQ even a thing? Cajun cuisine is the most bastardized cuisine in the history of cuisines, Buffalo Wings might be the second. That being said, I can only eat about a dozen.

[zow2]

That's impressive.

 

I usually order 30.  I used to eat a ton more but i eat about 10 and my 17 year old son eats the rest.  We usually have pizza as well.  

[I'm Spartacus]

When wings first got started, we used to go to a place in Riverside called Quinn's (Thomas E. Hughies was across the street).

Believe it or not, a double order of wings (20 mixed) only cost $3.75!!!

Wings are like a $1.00 each now 😞

 

[frostbitmic]

20 is the most I've ever eaten and the last 4 or 5 went down slow. The place I ate 20 has some meaty wings though.

Tell me where they are - I'm not believing that one! Unless they are pigeon wings with sour cream for dip.

Well, a "single order" is historically 10 wings. You are showing single order prices (I assume) that are all over $1.00 per wing. Where are you getting 15 cent wings from?

I think you misunderstood my original quote

 

I'm saying chicken wings are $1.50 a piece now 

 

Over $15 for single order... Not 15 cent wings ✌️ 

 

Shoot I would kill for those days of 5 cent 10 cent 20 cent... Hell Id take 50 cent wings now

Some places I eat at, 12 is like 4.  Other places, 4 is like 12. 

 

I also stopped buying wings unless I'm ordering pizza.  Otherwise I just air fry my own.

Air fried wings are nothing compared to the real deal. If you have some sort of secret please share. Wings are meant to be deep fried. Anytime I’ve had them air fried they aren’t the same

I do prefer oil fried over air fried also. 

 

I like to soak mine in oil for an hour before frying them in the air fryer.

 

Still not as good but gives it that oily taste that makes it closer.

Not complaining, but I’ve seen a single order as 5, 6 or 10. Just curious about what you mean to put it in perspective. It’s insane how expensive they have gotten! 

[Doc Brown]

College days three of us would split two buckets with pitchers Genesee Cream Ale.  I'm sure I hit 50 at least once.  I type this after eating a lettuce wrap with unsweetened ice tea.  Getting older sucks.

Back in high school, after wrestling matches, the team would go out on $.10 wing nights on Thursday. The wings were pretty small, but the order was for 50 a person around the table. That’s when I was 115 pounds. 
 

for those of us watching our weight, we weren’t all that bright. Lol

But wings are low in carbohydrates!

[machine gun kelly]

The restaurants or pizza places can choose what size they want as the larger the more expensive it is to the restaurant.  Blasdell Pizza used to order jumbo wings when I worked there 35 years ago as a delivery boy.  Good high school and early college job.  Interestingly, hot was Frank’s, medium was half Franks/half butter, and mild was just butter.  Suicide is where they used to put all kinds of crazy spices and peppers in it where you start tearing eating them.  
 

I don’t that many these days.  Usually a dozen, but maybe a few times a year.  They are just too bad for you that it has to be a treat.

I ate 7.  I pawned the rest off on anyone who wanted to try them. My son lasted one bite.  I think Fergy Jr., ate one.  No one else tried any.

 

This was also the night before the tailgate during which @BringBackFergytook a nappy poo in his truck.

Luckily, spicy foods don't have that effect on me!  But man, let me tell you ... these sumsbitches was HOT.  The only time I've been stopped short of a dozen.  Great experience .. ne'er again.

 

In fact, the following year, I got extra hot at Bar Bill and even THOSE were a bit too much.  I've stuck with hot since, and will continue with hot moving forward!

I tried a full order of suicides at Barbill once.

 

Once.

 

Now I just an order of hot and an order of another flavor (HBBBQ or Sicilian) with a side of suicide for some extra burn.

lucky you!!  The morning after is the only reason i stay away from the super hot stuff nowadays.  A few years back, I would regularly eat a grilled chicken wrap, with the chicken heavily tossed in a ghost pepper sauce.  Until that one morning....... ohhhhhhh what a morning it was.  Haven't eaten it since and will likely never again.

That is how I make them at home. 6 wings in the air fryer. 1/4 cup of Franks, a TBSP of butter, a splash of white vinegar, with a dash of cayenne powder when the butter is melting into the Franks. Air fry the wings dry. Mix them in a container (don't have a painters bucket LOL!) and then air fry again for 5 minutes to cook the sauce in and add a bit more crispiness. Drizzle the wings with a touch of the left over sauce before serving, put the rest in a dipping cup.

 

Everyone in WNY knows wings should be crispy and not wet and soggy!

 

It's crazy how badly wings are messed up in other parts of the country. I've ordered Buffalo wings in Philadlephia and gotten an order of plain fried wings and a side of bad sauce.... and ranch.....

What's odd is that as I get older, the spicy stuff doesn't do anything to my body any more than it used to ... but I seem to have less tolerance for the heat as I'm eating it.  I killed a dozen extra hots years ago with no problem.  Fast forward a few years and I couldn't do it.

 

Over the years, it's always been just a personal challenge.  My first wings at Bar Bill were "hot."  The waitress warned me that their mediums are like most places' hot.  But I got the hot, anyway.

 

The following year (I only go yearly), same waitress gave me the same warning, LOL.  Went with hot again.

 

That's when I decided to step it up each year.

 

Did the extra hot the following year and got through the dozen, no problem .. but they WERE hot.

 

Finally decided to do the Suicide wings when I was with Beerball, Fergs, Cletus and various family members.  That's when I ate 7 (don't listen to Beerball).

 

Stupidly, I got them again the next time we were all together and I was way outmatched.

 

Those days are over for me.  Now I'm just on a quest for a heat that gives a mild sweat with excellent flavor.

 

Bar Bill hot wings achieve that perfectly.

[I'm Spartacus]

I've scaled back on the hotness over the years too. Prilosec is my friend now.....

Crazy prices. 
place in Waterloo Ontario called Morty’s still has the best wings I’ve ever had outside Buffalo. 

Still the 9/11 Tavern for me are as close to wing artwork as I’ve ever eaten/seen. 
You’ll wait 45 minutes but they are huge and meaty and each wing appears to have been painted by a a very saucy brush.
