Anchor Bars Buffalo Wings The Original Hot Wing Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Chop off the tip of each chicken wing, and discard it (or save for chicken stock). Chop the wing in half (cutting at the joint) to make 2 pieces. Grind on fresh black pepper and sprinkle with salt. (here is where I vary from the recipe - I add the salt and pepper to the melted butter and hot sauce).
• 2. Heat the oil over high heat in a deep skillet, Dutch oven, or a deep-fat fryer until it starts to pop and sizzle (around 400 degrees F). Add half the chicken wings and cook until they're golden and crisp, stirring or shaking occasionally. When done, remove them to drain on paper towels and cook the remaining wings. (I fry them for 7 minutes a batch and after the last batch put them all back into the fryer for two minutes, drain and toss in the sauce).
• 3. Melt the butter over medium heat in a heavy saucepan, add the hot sauce and the 1 tablespoon of vinegar. Stir well and remove from the flame immediately. (I nuked it).
• 4. Place the chicken on a warm serving platter, pour the sauce on top, and serve. (I also vary from the recipe by tossing the wings in a huge bowl with the sauce for total coverage).

Steps:

• The Sauce: This makes enough for about 30 "wingettes." Mix all the ingredients in a small sauce pan over low heat until the margarine is completely melted. Stir occasionally.
• The Wings: Fry the wings in a deep fryer set at 375 degrees F using vegetable or peanut oil. Fry 15 wings at a time for 12 to 15 minutes. Drain the wings for a few minutes then put them in a bowl. After all the wings have been fried, pour the sauce over them, cover the bowl, and shake to completely coat the wings.
• They can be eaten now, or you can put them on a baking sheet and bake them for a few minutes to get an extra-crispy coating.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• If necessary, cut whole wings into two pieces. In a bowl toss the wings with the oil, and salt. Place into a large plastic shopping bag, and add the flour. Shake to coat evenly. Remove wings from the bag, shaking off excess flour, and spread out evenly on oiled foil-lined baking pan(s). Do not crowd. Bake for about 20 minutes, turn the wings over, and cook another 20 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and browned.
• While the wings are baking, mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a pan, and over low heat bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and then turn off.
• After the wings are cooked, transfer to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sauce over the hot wings and toss with a spoon or spatula to completely coat.
• These are always served with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Combine the hot sauce, butter, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt in a pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer while stirring with a whisk. As soon as the liquid begins to bubble on the sides of the pot, remove from heat, stir with the whisk, and set aside for use.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 and preheat oil in a deep fryer to 375.
• Fry wings for 8 minutes. (Do this in batches so you don't over crowd).
• Transfer to a tray lined with paper towels to drain.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• In a saucepan, melt butter. Add hot sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.
• Toss wings in sauce. Roast 15-20 minutes in preheated oven.
• Serve with Blue cheese or Ranch dressing and celery.

Steps:

• Prep the chicken:
• Stir buttermilk, hot sauce, and 1 Tbsp. salt in a wide, shallow bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat.
• Mix flour, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, and remaining 1 Tbsp. salt in a large bowl.
• Working in batches, transfer chicken to bowl with flour mixture. Toss to coat, then transfer to a rimmed baking sheet or large platter. Working in batches again, dip in buttermilk mixture, allow excess to drip off, then dip again in flour mixture. Transfer back to baking sheet and chill at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• For the hot sauce:
• Meanwhile, cook butter, hot sauce, and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
• For the blue cheese dip:
• Whisk sour cream, buttermilk, blue cheese, pepper, salt, and 1 Tbsp. plus 2 tsp. chives in a small bowl. Top with remaining 1 tsp. chives.
• Fry the chicken:
• Preheat oven to 250°F. Set a wire rack over another rimmed baking sheet.
• Pour oil into a large heavy pot fitted with thermometer to a depth of 2". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 350°F. Working in batches, fry chicken, turning occasionally, until crispy and golden brown and an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F, 4-6 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken to prepared wire rack, season with salt, and keep warm in oven.
• Right before serving, transfer fried chicken to a large bowl. Pour hot sauce mixture over and gently turn with tongs until coated. Serve with blue cheese dip and celery sticks alongside.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, toss wings with vegetable oil and salt. Sprinkle flour and toss until wings are evenly covered. Spread out on baking pans lined with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn wings and bake 20 minutes more or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine butter, vinegar, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and hot sauce. Bring to simmer over medium. Remove from heat. When wings are done, transfer them to a large serving bowl and pour hot sauce mixture over them. Toss wings to coat thoroughly with sauce. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing and plenty of napkins.
