Specifically the Anchor Bar, where they were first made. I've got to make it down that way one of these days, now that I'm living in Buffalo. Hmm...

Yeah the second you leave CA, the Hooters start to suck for some reason. The Hooters in CO and in the East Cost are crappy compared to the ones in LA.

Uh, right. BW are not big in Berkeley, FYI. I guess I had some at a party recently. They seemed like chicken with a sweet sauce and it got your hands greasy.

Seriously, it's like asking what onion rings are. Good lord.

Dood, you been posting too much. 9.52 posts/day = Get a life.

ZING!!!!!

Damn man, you really got me. Yep, that's ALL I do all day. I don't run a business, take care of my elderly father, go to school, manage properties, and go drinking with my buddies on the weekend. Nope, I'm on ATOT 24/7.

If I spend an average of 15 minutes a day posting ~10 posts, that leaves quite a bit of time for having a life. At least I have enough of one to know what buffalo wings are, retard.

Oh, and nice attempt at detracting people from realizing what a complete effing moron you are.

Well, all I can say is whatever you are you don't have much in the way of manners. Look to be short on brains, too, and common sense.

A local restraunt here serves "suicide wings." Last weekend we polished a penny in the sauce. Now those are real Buffalo Wings.

If you're going to go to Hooter for the wings, then your priorities are all f'd up.

You, sir, are not only a complete and utter imbecile, but are also severely lacking in any appreciable sense of humor, and looks like you could learn some manners yourself. Let me just say that on occasion, admitting you're a complete doofus is an admirable trait. My deepest condolences go out to any poor souls that you call your "friends," lest they have to combat your pitiful ignorance and irritable demeanor on a constant basis.

From what I can tell, Hooters wings have bad flavor, but heavy on the meat. 12 of them can actually constitute a meal, instead of having to eat two dozen of them at other places.

Duffs is good, but the original wings came from The Anchor Bar downtown. Never had the urge to go in, but that's how it all started.

Duffs was just a lot more closer to both campuses. Man I miss Buffalo.

Wow a topic I am an expert in! Not only was I born in Buffalo but I'm not smart enough to move out!

Hooters have the worst Wings... We don't call them buffalo wings that just sounds like you are cooking wings from Bison that fly.

I have never had a good wing outside of Buffalo ever. Even if the restaurant owner was originally from Buffalo something is just not right. It might be the sauce. Franks Hot sauce and butter melted in (depends on if you want mild or hot how much butter you add) is the only sauce to add to a wing. I prefer mine Extra super crispy!

The best place I ever had wings were at "Duffs". Small place here in buffalo and I think there is one in Toronto. By far they are the best, even better than Anchor bar. If you are interested .Anchor Bar will quick freeze a shipment for you. Here is their Story

Celery and carrots with Blue cheese on the side. You should dip the veggies and your wing in the blue cheese. Or not I like to.

And I suppose you think you are an angel. With a friend like you, your friends don't need enemies. If you go back you might see that your OP was a little more than an attempt at humor. Anyway, my OP specifically said I wasn't looking for humor. I detected some in your post, but also detected a sly attempt to put me down ("Good Lord") - not cool, man. Yeah, I don't live where BF are the thing or even particularly accessible unless you go out of your way. Now, I don't go out of my way to keep up with the Jonses and I don't feel sorry for myself because I don't know a goof BF from a bum one. I also don't put up with people trying to put me down. So, like I say, watch your manners, Bub. You are a fool and cowardly for attempting to condemn me. You don't know me at all.

Actually, it's true. I live in the Free State of Berkeley, not the USA. I do know some places in Berkeley I can get onion rings but none where they serve Buffalo Wings.

Ahh...

K. Here we go.

Buffalo wings as already mentioned are chicken WINGS with a spicy sauce that originated from Buffalo, NY. The portion of the chicken that is used is the wing only - what's referred to the "pin" and the "drum" (one piece looks like a safety pin, the other piece looks like a small chicken leg drumstick - but both pieces are wing portions). Usually a single order of a dozen, or multiples of are deep-fried in cooking oil for approximately 14-15 minutes, depending on the desired "crispyness" perhaps longer.

Once thoroughly cooked, the wings are then "drained" of excess oil, and the put into a bucket containing said "spicy" sauce. Buffalo wing sauce, with a few minor variations, is simply equal amount of butter or margerine mixed with .... Frank's Red Hot hotsauce. As mentioned before, there are variations - one place I worked put in a modicum of "Boss Sauce". As for spicyness, simply add or subtract an amount of Red Hot from the recipe to flavor. extra hot or XXX hot wings may also require the use of other ingredients, such as fresh chili or jalepeno juice, etc, to enhance the "power" of the Red Hot.

Stir and let the wings sit in the sauce for several minutes to soak up the flavor. Serve warm with a side of Bleu Cheese (I recommend Marie's) and Celery and/or Carrot sticks.

I have since moved away from my hometown of Batavia, NY, which is home to one of the primere buffalo wing makers - Pontillo's Pizzeria - and the local places make decent wings, but I prefer to make my own. As does my wife.

Viva la Fry-Daddy!

I really don't know how you can justify calling me a fool when you're the one that doesn't know what buffalo wings are.
And no, I don't know you at all, nor do you know me. All I know about you is that you are ignorant and a self-righteous chucklehead who doesn't know when he's been beaten. You've been owned, pal. Just admit it, back off, and we'll go back about our business.
