Techniques for eating wings

Good stuff, JR. I loves me some wings.

Buffalo Wild Wings ... yummy, but pricey for what you get. I hit them when they have specials.

I'll stick with barbecue sauce, though. Not down with the hot ones ... I don't enjoy the hotty hotness making a painful exit.
 
I have done a few of those moves over the years. My best technique is to not wear a white t-shirt. I tend to get really messy.
 
Interesting site but for the life of me I can't believe some people submitted Hooters as a good place for wings in some areas. Sure doesn't say much for the state of the chicken wing in those places.
 
BTW, the wings at the Anchorage are NOT very good.

But .... do you use the nice, cool and scented towelettes afterwards?
 
Techiniques aside, there are a couple axioms to remember when eating wings:

1. Never, ever wipe your face until you're done. Whats the point?
2. Fingers may be lightly dabbed only when reaching for the drink, and that's only if it's in a glass that would break if it slipped. If you've got a can of beer with your wings, no wiping. Again, what's the point?
3. Only after the gut is full of wings and fries may the wiping commence. Then you won't be tempted to dive back in.

The best bang for the wing buck around here are the local joints. The best part about BWW is the sauce, which they'll sell. Cheaper to buy that and make the wings your self... and I loves me some spicy garlic.

Actually, I always felt the wings at Hooters were one of their more reliable food items.

Maybe, but that ain't saying much for a place that sells ridiculously overpriced, lousy, bar food.
 
The atmosphere at Hooters is much better than its wings.

If you want good wings:

Start with a little butter (half a stick)

Add enough hot sauce (I use Louisiana) to cover your wings

Sprinkle enough garlic powder to cover the top of the pot

Bring to a boil, reduce and simmer for about five minutes.

To bread your wings, start with a 2-to-1 mix of flour and corn meal.

Season the breading with salt, pepper and paprika.

Fry. Toss the wings in the sauce while they're hot.

Use cheap paper towels and cheaper beer.

I can attest to the quality of Mr. Three_Bags wings.

And, welcome back after a busy summer.
 
I love fried stuff, but breaded chicken wings are gross. Fry em up skinless, or grill em
