I'm in Buffalo. It's a Buffalo thing. Please, just call them wings.
This recipe is as simple as it gets. But in a home kitchen it's probably one of the more complicated things you could choose to make.
First you'll want to melt two sticks of butter and then mix in 1 1/4 cup of Frank's Red Hot. Just Franks and butter. If you add anything else, then they will not be traditional wings. They'll probably be really tasty but with this you'll want to stick with the original recipe.
These 40 wings are organic, locally sourced and well trimmed. They should be rinsed and pat dry before fried.
The organic canola was heated to about 350 degrees.
Because of the size of my wok and the size of the wings, I only fried five at a time.
They went in for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the internal temp. read 170 to 180 degrees, at which time they're pulled from the oil and drained well.
These are absolutely perfect and are ready to be tossed in the sauce.
The sauce needs to be reheated on the stove for just a moment to keep the butter melted and well blended in between batches.
When you fry in batches, use a bowl to cover the wings to keep them warm before they're served. Serve with Blue Cheese dressing, a big lush salad and stacks of napkins.
Do not save the sauce or the oil when you are done, and please dispose of the oil in a container, rather than down the drain.
