Homemade chicken wings - what's your method?
Discussion
As a true spice addict, making my own wings is the only way I can find wings spicy enough. Weirdly, I've only just got into making them though!!
I've been following this guy's method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyAAzVykxHs
It seems that pickle juice is commonplace in the US, but not over here, so I substituted a bit of vinegar.
Instead of Franks Hot sauce I use this: https://www.hotsauceemporium.co.uk/product/psycho-...
And for my spice/seasoning I use this: https://www.hotsauceemporium.co.uk/product/psycho-...
I've currently got a batch marinating in the fridge for cooking on Sunday when I get back from a wedding.
Anyone got any other methods as it seems there are loads of different ways.

Sousvide the wings. Drain and pat dry and leave to cool.
Toss in flour with hot chilli powder, s&p.
Deep fry till golden.
Meanwhile melt some butter and whisk in franks buffalo sauce.
Toss wings in sauce and serve with jalapenos and sauces of your choice.
If you want it hotter just use hotter sauce.
The butter is a key step as the fat helps the spice from the sauce "stick" to your tongue and will increase the flavour / heat.

Cool thanks, I guess this is the main alternative to cooking in the oven? Toss in flour with hot chilli powder, s&p.

And so true on the butter, I think years ago I cooked wings then just poured the sauce from the bottle over them, and it was certainly missing the true wing feel to it.

I see you're in London. Have you tried the Viper wings from Orange Buffalo in Ely's Yard, off Brick Lane? If they aren't spicy enough for you, I'd be amazed. Because they provide you with gloves to eat them with, to save burning your fingers. TwigtheWonderkid said:

Because they provide you with gloves to eat them with, to save burning your fingers. I've tried both and failed dismally. But for me, they are at the end of the spectrum where flavour/taste is irrelevant, they're just coating it in as much spice as possible to try and kill a person. I am still annoyed they were too much for me though, I went into them pretty confident.
i like wings, but dont like something that's crispy or breaded and deep fried covered in sauce.
watched a video a while back of some butcher youtubers trying various methods of cooking wings. the one that suprised them the most basically involved..
1- microwave raw wings in a bowl of water for 15min
2- chuck on a wire rack uunder the grill, cook for 10-15min to get crispy/desired texture.

Homemade bone dust rub with a smattering of corn flour , rub half a potato over a hot grill , then cook for 30 mins turning the wings frequently , Can't be simpler .
Do you coat in any sauce once cooked? fttm said:

Website is annoying and full of ads, but the recipe is worth it.
