Buffalo Wings

[Gerry Zagorski]

With Super Bowl right around the corner thought this might come in handy...

Best way to cook wings is to deep fry them but unless you have a commercial deep fryer it's a challenge because the small home fryers don't keep the oil hot enough, unless you just put a few wings at a time. So, I find at home, baking them on high heat is best.

For the wings I prefer fresh not frozen but if you must use frozen, I would defrost them before baking and be sure to separate the wings from the drums.

In a gallon plastic ziplock bag mix in 3/4 cup of flour, 1 tablespoon of garlic salt and 1 teaspoon of cracked black pepper..

Throw wings into bag and shake them around so they have a good coating on them.

Place wings on a slighty greased cookie sheet (PAM) so when baking they don't stick as much. Cookie sheet needs to be the type with sides on it because you don't want the grease from the wings spilling all over your oven.

Preheat oven to 425 and cook wings approx 25 minutes or until brown. Flip wings and cook another 20 to 25 minutes until browned.

While the wings are cooking pour yourself a beer and melt half stick of butter in a small sauce pan and add 1/2 of a 12 ounce bottle of Franks Red Hot Sauce.

When wings come out of oven put them into a large bowl, pour hot sauce over them and toss around until they are coated.

Crack another beer and Enjoy.
