How do i know which wing i’m gonna get??

[u/seokirby]

i ordered regular wings at one restaurant and they looked like this, and then i ordered regular wings at a different place and they looked like this. How do i know if they’re gonna be flavorless and smooth vs. crunchy and seasoned??? Is there any indicator?? what do i ask?

Just ask if they’re breaded before you order. The word you’re looking for is breaded.

Naked vs Breaded is how you ask.

[u/noblehoax]

Most restaurants will say they are breaded if they are breaded. The other ones look like were ordered without sauce but definitely right level of crispy.

Look them up on Google and look at the pictures

The breaded ones have spices, mostly salt garlic and onion powder, in the breading. The bare wings haven't been sauced, that's why they are bland. You want a basic 1/3 butter to 2/3 Frank's sauce and plenty of sauce on the plate. If you get sauce on the side dip one side in sauce and the other side pick up some Bleu cheese for the perfect wing.

Flavorless? Get some sauce on them or a dry rub at least!

Most places are usually the smoothed, not many places other than fast food so the crunchy.

That being said just asked the waiter and they'll usually let you know. That or browse their website

Some places do both. Flavour wise, traditional buffalo style or hot wings won’t be breaded. If you get bbq or some other thick sauced flavour I find they are often breaded.

You can also asked for them well done or fried hard. Fried hard is a little too well done for me. You can also asked for extra wet meaning a bunch of sauce on them.

Personally, I like to ask for wings dry with sauce on the side. It keeps the wings crisp until you eat them, and if you take them home for leftovers they won’t get soggy. Especially if they are breaded.

Most places will be “smooth” or non-breaded. That’s your classic wing served dry rubbed or sauced.

The “seasoned” ones are breaded and usually served without a sauce or dry rub. Those are just classic fried chicken. Nashville style hot chicken wings are also served this way.

Breaded vs non breaded (or naked)

[u/dylbull]

>flavorless and smooth 

That's not how this works my friend

They are wings, just eat them.

Are you for real?
