food The Perfect Wing

After over 20 years of trying I think I have just made and eaten the perfect wing. I will share with you the process. I was given 20lbs of wings and an Emeril commercial grade deep fryer for Christmas. Peanut oil is a must. Put the oven on broil medium to preheat, and then preheat the oil to 375F put the wings in and begin mixing the sauce. It is a large dose of Defcon 2, a smaller dose of DM MKII, a yet smaller dose of my own habanero concentrate. Next, the dry ingredients: cajun seasoning, a mix of mild pepper powders and garlic powder, and finally some texas pete garlic sauce. Poke the wings with a fork when they have about two minutes to go, then take 'em out while they are barely done and shake them in the sauce. Now put them on a nonstick sprayed sheetpan and put them in the oven to crisp a little more. About 3 minutes, flip. Another 3 minutes take them out and put them back in the sauce. Now you're ready. Have at 'em!
 
I dont bread mine per say I shake them in a bag of flour, cayenne or powder of choice, season salt and pepper and let them sit on a tray for 45 min before frying them. I really like them on the grill/smoker but not with the flour mix just a rub and brush with sauce.
 
that sounds like a great idea, cooking partway in the fryer then finishing them off in the oven. this method also would work better for me since I only have a small fry daddy & they get cold by the time I finish making all of them unlike the oven part, all would be done & hot at the same time. much better!!
I'll try this next time I make wings.
 
It's not time effective for a restaurant, but I have been doing this for years myself. It kind of cooks some of the sauce into the wing and then you add more at the end.
 
I prefer the sauce cooked into the wing, myself. I hate wings that are so saucy that you can't even get a good grip on the thing.

A while back there was a thread about how to cook wings and Defcon let out his way of cooking wing...I tried his way and haven't cooked wings any other way!!!! His way is the best way....Juicy Tender inside with a crispy outside....No breading required!
