Sunday sesh - trying to do my own chicken wings

[jbj]

for the first time.

Made a rub out of flour
salt
pepper
smoked parika (lots)
coriander (lots)
cayenne
cajun spices
garlic powder

Going to meet my dad for a few beers then shallow fry or bake them.

Wish me luck - my wife REALLY doesn't like food on the bone (I love it) but she's wiling to give it a try so if I get this right it'll mean I can do some nice recipes I never get to cook

I'll report back

Steam the wings over beer first.
Let them cool in the fridge.
Then dust them with your rub and bake them.

So good. So crispy. No frying oil stink in the house.

Rub is already on. I'll try that next time.

Somebody else here posted the method a while back.

I've been doing wings that way ever since.

Interest in this method is high.
I will try it this week.

I like 'em on the grill as well - another good way to keep the cooking/oil smell out of the house

Well??

They were meh.

I think I fluffed up by putting the oil in a pan with the intention of frying them and then deciding I couldnt be bothered so chucking them in the oven - took a lot of the coating off.

She wasn't repulsed so I'll give it another crack.
