Chef Jim Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 This should really be on the Discovery Channel. "Search for the Real Wings". No, they aren't all the same. Mine are pretty damn good. But we're concentrating on bars. I have no idea who makes good wings, they sure don't in any bar I've been in in 15 years. 633935[/snapback] I was actually on the TV Food Network preparing a few dishes and one was Buffalo Wings. The guy afterwords said "did you see how he coated the wings in the sauce by shaking them up in a small bucket with a top. That's the true and best way to do it." The other key: cook them in very hot oil while they're still partially frozen so they cook longer and stay moist. That way they get VERY crispy.

Maybe they'll give us money to make a show. We could even try to get your boy William Shatner to host it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sizzling blubber would be quite a sight. I think he'd crisp up nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought? I still prefer the pre-salting method to get crispy plus tender. I'm not making jerkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodBye Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Buffalo? for food? Not a lot going on in Sasquatch, Oregon, is there? 634021[/snapback] Nah, not the only reason. Just feeling like I need a little more adventure in my life. Getting bored of living in the same state. I also like to travel to different places and explore. I was in Niagara Falls for a couple of days and loved it there. I didn't have enough time to really experience the NE like I wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My conservative friends would call me a traitor. Those nasty French people suck. Got a line on southern Greece too, through a Polish connection believe it or not. Nobody is bitching about them yet. Better watch out for them Polish people. They might want to run our ports or something. Us Polacks are pretty savvy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Fong Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 yeah, what's up with the ranch dressing side dish ---- real wing eaters do it with blue cheese 633768[/snapback] You should see some of the looks I get from waitresses when I ask for bleu cheese instead of ranch. They act like I'M the infidel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 At my dad's restaurant he had the best damn wings I ever had. This was probably 30 years ago, so this was the Buffalo Wing heyday. The sauce was the best. I asked him where he got the recipe and he told me it was a secret. Well one day I was breaking down boxes and one was the Durkee Frank's hot sauce box. And on the side was their Buffalo Wing sauce recipe. Secret sauce my ass. Ancient Chinese secret, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpile Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I agree don't call cooked and flavored chicken wings Buffalo wings! Sorry, but Buffalo did not invent the "Chicken Wing" The preparation is the "Buffalo Wing." That is a specific way of preparing the wings with a specific sauce/coating. So if a restaurant wants to serve wings done differently, I don't see a problem as long as they don't call them Buffalo Wings. 633781[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
