OT: The Food & Drinks Thread Part Deux

He's endearingly wacko. Like the way his voice becomes high pitched without notice.

Matty Matheson, gents. Hes a perfect caricature of the types youd find in kitchens.

Just made some hot wings for supper. The recipe I found as a base for the sauce called for 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne. Instead, I used 1 tablespoon of habanero powder, one diced up habanero, about a tablespoon of hot sauce (in addition to the Frank's), and garnished with another diced up pepper.

My mouth is on fire

Do you deep fry them?

Any dip on the side?

Looks good, can't stomach really hot stuff any longer unfortunately. If I had one of those I would have to eat a whole coconut.

Nah, they're baked. Better than any wings I've deep fried in the past.

Dont kid yourself

Not saying they're better than any fried wings, just any I've made.

2 lbs of wings
Toss with:
1 tablespoon flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 - 1 teaspoon salt
some pepper
garlic powder if you want.
lay on an oven safe cooling rack, and bake at 250F for 35 minutes.
Turn up the heat to 425 and bake for another 45 minutes.
Coat in sauce

I've fried wings before and wasn't as happy with how they turned out, but these ones always turn out perfectly.

Thanks to @slocal for the recipe!

Those look amazing! You really made them look mouth-watering!

Fantastic!

I used to make chicken wings but then realized I could do the same thing with drumsticks! Try it out sometime! Hell of a lot cheaper and just as good!

You're definitely right. I have some drumsticks in the freezer and some sauce leftover. Might have to adjust the cooking time, but that's what instant read thermometers are for.

Ya, I bake mine too.

I bake mine and then crisp them up just a bit with the broiler. Other than that? It’s a giant chicken wing IMO

It depends on the style of BBQ. Some BBQ is all about the dry rubs, some are all about the sauces. I can't remember which is which now (St. Louis, Texas, Memphis, etc.)

When I make ribs, I'll use a dry rub and slow cook for a few hours and then add a thin layer of sauce before grilling for a few minutes. I agree that if it's dripping with sauce, it isn't great. Same goes for wings..

I’m saving this year to get one of those Green Egg ceramic smoker/grill/bake things for next summer! Can’t wait!

I've learned how to do fried chicken in a Le Creuset on the stovetop.

It is only worth the effort in quantity, but thighs and drums are just perfect.

I love wings but haven't bothered. When I cook them on charcoal I crisp them up with direct cooking for the last few minutes.

Kenji had an oven wings recipe that is okay for getting the crispness.

Usually do brine as well.

[Mrb1p]

Grill your drumettes first and then put them in the broiler for fifteen minutes and now thank me for the rest of your life.

Haven’t had too much experience with brine, but can tell you that the best Turkey I have ever cooked soaked in a brine for 24 hours. Lots of work with a turkey LOL!

Frank's extra hot and blue cheese is always good enough for me.
