OT; Try some true Buffalo wings!

They have instituted a Buffalo Wings Trail in Buffalo!

No. Not like Buffalo Wild Wings. Buffalo doesn’t do Buffalo Wild Wings.

Buffaloes don’t have wings.

They cut them off the baby buffaloes. Can't have them dropping bombs like pigeons do!

Huh. I’m always learning something new here.

 

[PearlSUJam]

I've been to the original Anchor bar and I have to say they were average at best.

I thought that was a myth. It's true?

Those who live within 100mi radius of Buffalo would tell you that...

That’s why they go to about 100 other places for wings before they go to that tourist trap

Not that it matters, but it was about 25 years ago. I was in the area for a wedding and the dive bar across the street had better wings.

I wouldn't fly in Orville Wright's plane but, like the Anchor Bar, it was the one that broke the mold.

Dreamland for bbq
Pat's for cheesesteaks
Cafe du Monde for beignets
Margaritaville Key West for cheeseburgers
Skyline for chili

Not because they're the best, but so you can say you've been there

When I used to do work in Buffalo, we used to go to Gabriel's Gate. Not sure if it's open anymore - this was in the early 1990s.

I really like Hooters wings (and I like the articles in Playboy so sue me). But the best wings I've ever had are 'dirty wings" at J. Timothy's in Plainville CT.

the story they tell is that they had a "regular" that stopped by every week at a set day and time. So much so that they just made the wings ahead of time. One day, after the wings are cooking, dude calls in to say he's going to be really late. So J. Timothy's sets them aside. A few minutes before he gets there, they coat them with sauce (again) and reheat them. The old sauce browns and sinks in, the new sauce gives it fresh flavor. They felt these were the best wings they ever made so put them on the menu as a regular item. They are great.

There's plenty of great wing places here in my neck of the woods. Each place has a unique taste and texture. One that has been winning Wings over Montage (wing competition at a waterpark) the past few years is Happy Valley Sports Bar. They have excellent wings, great service and a mini Lion shrine behind the bar that CJF signed when he was in town.

I don't know if it's a coincidence that this thread is up today but today is literally National Chicken Wing Day.

Went to Duff's near the UB campus and the wings there were incredible. Would highly recommend them. Lot of variety and spicy. Good beer menu too.

Good friend of mine is from Buffalo. When I visit he only takes us to Duffs.

Suuuurreee, I knew that!!! (Could be why it was in the Sunday PG)

Duff’s never disappoints... unless it’s the Rochester franchised location - which is dreadful... this one has a death-rattle

The Windsor Inn, Jermyn, Pa. , Kelly’s, South Scranton, Pa. & Here & Now Brewing Honesdale, Pa. , Buff-a-que wings (also unreal duck fat fries, just ask MaconNitt!).

Mickey Gannon's in Green Ridge, Town Tavern in Duryea, and Sanderson Street Tavern in Throop are good ones too.

Some of them do.

I used to live a couple miles from Duffs (UB campus). Their wings were good, but best wings in WNY are at Lebro’s.
