Homemade Chicken Wings
Homemade chicken wings. Great for gatherings, great for dinner, great just because. Being bigger, tastier, and cheaper than restaurant wings.
Equipment
- Deep Fryer
- Baking Sheets
- tinfoil
- Big Bowl
Ingredients
- 1-2 packs Family Size Wings (4-5 lbs each)
- Your choice of wing sauce (what we use in the notes)
- 5 gallon Vegetable Oil (for the deep fryer if you don't already have it filled)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Line a baking sheet with tinfoil. You will need two if you have two packs of wings.
- With a sharp knife or kitchen shears remove the wing tips at the joint and discard.
- At the next joint separate the flat from the drum. Place both pieces on a baking sheet.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all the wings have been cut and placed on the baking sheet.
- Bake at 350° for 20 minutes. While the wings bake, plug in your deep fryer to start warming up the oil. Set temp to 356°
- Once the wings are finished take 13-18 wings and place them in your ready fryer. Cook for 10-12 minutes.(It all depends on the size of your fryer. Just make sure all the wings submerge in the oil)
- Once the wings have turned a golden color pour them onto a paper towel lined plate or large dish.
- Then in a large bowl place 10-12 wings at a time along with about ¼ to ½ cup of your favorite wing sauce and carefully toss the wings in the bowl or stir with a large spoon to make sure you coat all of the wings in sauce.
- If you would like to have multiple flavored wings either rinse out the one bowl or grab another and repeat the last step again.
- Enjoy!
Notes
*One 4-5 lb family pack of wings will feed 4 people. You will get roughly 28-30 wings out of each pack.
Wing Sauce we like to use: Hooter's Hot Sauce, Sweet Baby Ray's Original BBQ, Sweet Baby Ray's Teriyaki, and sometimes Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet and Spicy.
