Thread from the enemies… bengals/bills

I'm old enough to remember when wings weren't much of a thing.  It was probably the early 90's before chain wing restaurants started popping up, with the exception of the hood wing chains that sell hot fried versions (also pretty solid).  

We got a Wings and Rings in my neighborhood around then.  It was in a dump of a building that never maintained business up until then.  If you picked up wings in the drive thru, the bag was absolutely drenched at the bottom with butter.  They became my standard for Buffalo wings.  Now even that chain isn't the same.  

Roosters isn't afraid of using butter, but they sometimes fail to get enough flavor to retain the tang of the hot sauce.  

It's odd how something becoming wildly popular almost always results in decreasing quality.  

I've been doing Wings and Rings since they opened in Oakley.  But man they refuse to cook them crisp even when you hit the crispier option.  I know what you are talking about with the older version.  A long time ago they had one in Mt Lookout Tavern, and yeah they came in a brown paper bag that you better carry from the bottom.
