Hey ya'll once again from the big not so dry ditch here in Las Vegas.(been raining all day) Well I may have gone out of my head last night. Bought some wings and other items at the local hippy food store and then hmmm....what to do...poppers or wings? Then an epiphany hit me like a kung fu dim mak death punch. Why not both? A decision of that magnitude requires much careful contemplation as it in theory combining the two in one instance could tear a hole in the universe and doom all life on the planet. Mrs. Blues retired to bed at 8pm leaving me to my own deviant devices. The Blues Kitchen was now OPEN!
Below is my modus operandi. CAUTION! CUIDADO! First timers should NOT attempt to duplicate the culinary horrors you are about to witness without expert assistance!
First...
Crack and slam 2 beers and one shot..preferably tequila. Not my favorite but I have 2 mags of Patron that I bought for Xmas gifts but "regifted" to myself. Plenty of fuel to begin the destruction.
Take the wings and season liberally with fresh cracked pepper and sea salt. Mix 2 parts sweet thai chili sauce to one part mayo and slather over the wings to marinade. Set aside and crack another hosky.
Pith and deseed 8 stuffing sized jalapenos. Do a shot.
Mince shallot and fresh garlic and toss into a stainless steel mixing bowl. Add a heap of sundried tomatos in olive oil, black olives, dried pequins (from TB's own garden of eatin') and mix.
Squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lime and add. Cut a wedge from the other 1/2 lime. Pour another shot, bite into the wedge and slam the shot. (at this point, a tequila/alcohol forcefield if you will, now shields the Blues Kitchen thus protecting Earths inhabitants). Add shredded cheddar cheese to the mix and a dollop of sour cream as a binder and mix. Taste. Add more pepper or salt if needed.
Crack another beer and in two seperate bowls pour panko bread crumbs. Set oven to 400. Stuff the japs with the mix and roll the stuffing side into the panko to coat (holds the mix together and adds some crunch). Place on a spray lubed cookie sheet to await the journey into the inferno.
Crack another hosky and drain the wings from the marinade. Toss the wings one at a time into the panko and coat liberally. Place the wings in the cast iron skillet.
When up to temp..place the wings and the poppers into the oven and pray the combination of the two concoctions heated side by side doesn't set off a nuclear reaction. That would be bad. A one sub kiloton low yield nuke detonating in my kitchen could cause some serious damage. I reckon about $43.50 worth of damage.
Leave the wings and poppers in the oven for about 2 beers and a shot or until golden brown.
As it turns out the tequila force field did its job and I am here to tell the tale. When the wings came out I tossed them into a bowl with Bone Suckin' Q sauce. The hot one..not the "for total wimps" version.
Behold!
And the wings...
Proof they can coexist without destroying the world..
Cheers ya'll, TB.
