...but what are the facts
- There is a huge popular uprising in Egypt.
- Mubarak is in trouble.
- Mubarak was our guy.
- Mubarak is kind of a dick.
- This might be a good thing, it might be a bad thing.
- All those gibbering buffoons on television and the radio have no idea if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Super Bowl is this Sunday and you know you want buffalo wings. Now, for me the problem is I want a lot of wings, but the best way to make buffalo wings is by deep frying the living crap out of them. It's Superbowl Sunday, do you really want to combine 370 degree oil and drunken football viewers. Hell, even under the best of circumstances the mess alone makes it almost not worth the effort. Still, Mmmm buffalo wings! Hot, Hot, Buffalo Wings!
So, plan B,
20 chicken wings, split and tips discarded
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup red pepper sauce
3/4 cup tomato sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1) Kitchen shears, it's the easy way to section chicken, just snip. Save the tips for stock. 2) Spread the chicken bits on a couple of sheet pans. Leave room, you want maximum crispage.3) Put the pans in a preheated 375 degree oven for a half hour. 4) The sauce ingredients are just a suggestion. Lose the chili powder for allspice, now they are jerk wings. Lose the chili+cayenne, add brown sugar+soy sauce you have teriyaki. 5) Sauce those bad boys. 6) If you can wait out a second trip to the oven more heat will make the sauce set up. Nice! Oh yeah, make-um hot!
It's half time, crack a cold one, pass around the wings and skip the half-time show. If you have to have a plan B make it a party.
