WINGS..Sometimes you just have to fry them

[Sowsage]

Sorry in advance for not having a lot of pictures.. Didnt plan on sharing this but figured hey why not??

Its just been to dang windy and cold for me to want to mess with the smoker lately... And I was really craving some wings..... And I wanted them fried!!... Normally I just drop them right in the fryer "naked"... But this time I wanted crispy crunchy wings.. So I did them like I do my fried chicken for family get togethers..

First step...
Straight AP flour

Second step
3 eggs
1 cup flour
1 TBSP seasoning salt
1 can cheap light beer( or club soda)

Third step
2 cups flour
1 TBSP salt
1 tsp celery salt
1 TBSP paprika
1 TBSP cayenne pepper
1.5 TBSP garlic powder
0.5 TBSP onion powder

Coat in the plain flour then the egg/beer mix then into the seasoned flout mix. Drop into 350° oil. Wings take about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.

Super crispy chicken.....yum!!

Sure hit the spot!! Thanks for taking a look!

Ah man, that looks like some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever seen! Did you sauce them?

 

[BandCollector]

Wings are the BOMB! Yours look great,

I remember as a kid growing up in a steel mill town in Pittsburgh PA. A poultry shop in town had actual live chickens in cages displayed where you could choose which one you preferred. It would be taken in the back and processed as you waited.

In those days the wings were given away for free. Try asking for free wings today. . .LOL!

Did I mention that yours look great?

Thanks!, yep just the flour. Three stages.. Make sure you use beer or club soda.. The carbonation is the key factor here... Ive done both but usually use beer. One1 for the chicken and 8 for me

David

Thanks David ! Me too! I usually dont fry in the house... But couldnt resist this time!

Nice and crunchy!

yep! Nice for a change.. I havent had fried chicken in forever and this hit the spot!

 

[Sowsage]

Ah man, that looks like some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever seen! Did you sauce them?

Thanks!.. Yep I sauced mine.. I didn't toss them just drizzled over top so theybwouldnt loose the crispness. Local bar has what they call "all sauce".. So that's what i did on mine. Garlic butter, buffalo, and sweet baby rays. Its a killer combo!

Thanks John ! I remeber buying wings in a giant bag at a local processing place. Something like $0.20 per lb.. Then all the sports bars got them popular.. I usually cut up about 5 birds at a time. That gets me a bag of 10 drums and 10 flats. Thats enough for me and the boys. And way cheaper!
