Buffalo Wings Recipe

Step 11 Serve and enjoy

Serve the wings with blue cheese sauce, carrots, and celery. 

The general theory on eating hot wings is to dip a wing in blue cheese dressing and nibble, tear and suck all the meat off the bone.  Extra points if you eat the cartilage and clean the bone! 

Then, dip and munch a carrot, dip and munch a celery, and repeat 100's and 100's of times.

In case you haven't figured this one out by now, hot wings are especially good when eaten in mass quantity and paired with a cold beer.

A comment and a recommendation;

1st, it is almost 4AM and I am now dying for some hot wings....

2nd; I understand you were going for authentic BUFFALO wings, so not to take away from the authenticity I will make a suggestion for hot wings. Instead of steaming them prior to baking, throw em on a (charcoal) grill. That's what I do and that added smokiness with the hot sauce/buttery goodness is AMAZING. Just a suggestion.

Thanks for the instructable noah, saw this method first from Alton Brown, but I like that you included that orgasmic blue cheese sauce recipe and celery/carrot sticks cause Alton doesn't seem to like those. Personally I can't imagine good wings without freshly made blue cheese sauce (ahemmm Hooters)

Oh and I substituted greek yogurt for the sour cream and mayo, and a lime for the lemon, I think it compliments the blue cheese a little better

I agree with EmmettO, most places it's sad to see what they pass off for buffalo wings. It especially irks me when they have BBQ or some other off flavor but advertise them as buffalo style. I don't know if this is the "official" cooking method, I've tried several ways myself except for deep frying, and they've almost all turned out pretty good.

 Usually the term "Buffalo" wings irks me because I've seen and tasted them done very badly in the past. Here in Buffalo NY they're just chicken wings.

Still the recipe looks right! There is of course no one recipe for chicken wings but the original at the Anchor Bar was Franks Hot Sauce and butter. You also got the crispy part right. Most places selling Buffalo Wings cook them soft and have some kind of hideous orange goo on them.

I imagine you or some relatives are from the Queen City?
