Buffalo wings -- world's best beer partner

Mike, sorry, the next 2 wednesdays are probably a bust for Jimmies. I got your message, and I’d love to go (especially after this damn thread) but the boss dropped a deadline on me which’ll keep me working too late for a while.

If I don’t hear from you in this thread by 5 I’ll give you a call at home to let you know that I can’t do it. We’ll do it first chance I get if you’re still game. Maybe we can prod a couple of others to join us too.

No problemo, Omni.
next time.

The big wing craze sucked as far as I was concerned. Back in the day nobody wanted the stupid things, so my mom could pick em up for like 15 cents a pound just so the stores could get rid of em. She would fry up a huge batch of them and leaving a lot in the fridge for snacks(the best reason for non-breaded is that they still kick ass cold). Hers was more of a spicy teriyaki-ginger kind of sauce, ummm ummm. but now she wont make them anymore when I go home because she says “There is no way on God’s earth I’m gonna pay that much for a bunch of damn chicken wings” :frowning:

Drain bead,
The Flutie Flakes were like cheap generic corn flakes with an artificial sweetener added. Not as much sweet as Frosted Flakes, but still sweeter than plain corn flakes. The flakes also weren’t very big. They got soggy quickly in milk. Aside from the Flutie-ness of it all, I don’t give them very high marks.

The candy bars, on the other hand, are excellent. Like a Crunch bar, but made with Flutie Flakes (duh) instead of puffed rice.

Elmwood,
So cool that you are the Virtual Cheektowaga guy! After I posted that, I was thinking that if you weren’t the Cheektowaga webpage guy, you were going to be very confused by the question.

But what is a Restoration Hardware??

My mom, the saint, mails me a good supply of Weber’s and other Buffalo food items, including Wegman’s brand cat food, which is the only kind of cat food that our beloved and extremely spoiled kitty will eat. She is, however, LATE WITH THIS YEAR’S SPONGE CANDY SHIPMENT. I’m writing a letter to management!

Jack,
The real selling point of a beef on weck is the horseradish. I like the weck, but it’s the horseradish I love. Do you like “beef on weck” if it’s on a different kind of roll? My cousin eats them on plain rolls (we call it “beef on not weck”).

And what are these breaded wings MikeG and Omniscient are discussing? People do that to wings?

Yeah, I’ll have beef-on-non-weck with just a dab of horseradish, but then people look at me funny. I’ll take a Viola’s sub over beef-on-weck any day of the week.

Mike, I may have recruited another.
