My Activity

Reviewed Alton Brown's Buffalo Wings

"This is the first time I've a made an Alton Brown recipe and b been this intimate with raw chicken. The chicken itself turned out fantastic--crispy, fall-off-the-bone...just really, really good!

However--and the reason for the 3 star rather than 5 star rating--the sauce didn't stay on the wings *at all*. I'm not a fan of really spicy stuff so the spice 'level' was fine for me, but I had to pick the chicken off the bone and dip it into the sauce at the bottom of the bowl because the wings themselves were virtually sauceless. :( I've seen a few people talk about "setting" the sauce under the broiler or basting during the baking process, and if I make these again I'll definitely try that. But the sauce just seemed so thin, I have a hard time imagining it would 'stay in place' long enough to even set or soak in during the basting process. Overall, for my first wing attempt, I was pleased. Would have been 5 stars all the way if the sauce had been thicker and had stayed on better.
