Buffalo Chicken Wings & Blue Cheese Dip

Blue Cheese Dip
Ingredients
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic (about 1 small clove)
1/4 cup minced parsley
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Chicken Wings
Ingredients
4 to 5 pounds of chicken wings
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt, if desired
4 cups vegetable oil
4 tablespoons butter or margarine ( stick)
5 tablespoons Louisiana brand hot sauce OR 5 tablespoons Tabasco sauce
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar


Directions
1. Chop off the tip of each wing and discard it. Chop the wing in half (cutting at the joint) to make 2 pieces. Grind on black pepper and sprinkle with salt if desired.
2. Heat the oil over high heat in a deep cast-iron skillet, Dutch oven or deep-fat fryer until it starts to pop and sizzle (around 400 degrees).
3. Add half the chicken wings and cook until they are golden and crisp (about 6-10 minutes, depending on how hot the oil is), stirring and shaking occasionally.
4. When done, remove them to drain on paper towels and cook the remaining wings.
5. Melt the butter or margarine over medium heat in a heavy saucepan.
6. Add the hot sauce and vinegar. Sir well and remove from the flame immediately.
7. Place the chicken on a warm serving platter. Pour sauce on top and serve.
8. On the side, serve the chilled blue cheese dressing in a bowl with a dozen celery sticks stuck into the dressing and around the outside of the bowl.
Serves 8.
 
Oooooh, Rainee - I'm drooling! This is pretty much the original recipe I was taught when we lived in Buffalo. Only dif was they usually used Frank's, and apple cider vinegar.
 
I have the original Frank & Teresa's Anchor Bar recipe, stolen by a former employee who was a classmate of mine.

Original Anchor Bar Buffalo Wings

Sauce Ingredients: (This recipe is potent enough for at least 4 dozen wings)

1/4 lb butter
1 cup Durkees Frank's Original Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce (this is the only one)
1/8 cup granulated sugar
1/8 cup white vinegar
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion salt

Bleu Cheese Dip

Equal amounts of KRAFT mayonnaise and Sour Cream ("Light" mayo or sour cream do not taste the same).
Juice squeezed from one whole fresh Lemon (no concentrates).Pressed cloves of Garlic, to taste.
4oz Treasure Cave All Natural Bleu Cheese, from Beatrice Cheese Inc., Waukesha, Wisconsin...available in most Delis or grocery stores.

Directions

Cut off the wing tips & discard them. Pre-mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Rinse wings, pat dry, pre-bake the wings in a 250F oven for 15 minutes, then deep fry in vegetable oil to desired texture (soft or crispy).

On LOW heat, melt butter in a saucepan, add vinegar and Franks/Durkees sauce. Whisk dry ingredients into saucepan until well combined, Simmer sauce for 20 minutes in a covered saucepan, unless you need to clear your sinuses.

Pour sauce into Large Tupperware Bowl, add fried wings, seal, and shake well until wings are coated. Use a rubber spatula to get all of the sauce out of the bowl & wash it immediately after serving, otherwise it may retain a reddish "Buffalo Wings" tint

For the Dip, just mix all ingredients well & serve @ room temp or chilled. Serve with celery and carrot sticks.

* Tradition has it that a few COLD bottles of Genesee Cream Ale, Molsons or Labatts will enhance the wings flavor and lessen their bite.
 
Caine, there are many versions of the 'original' sauce and recipe out there. The version Rainee posted is the one used by just about everyone in Buffalo.
 
my favorite hot sauce for coating the wings is about 1/2 a stick of melted butter, a cup or so of frank's hot sauce, a TBS of garlic powder, and the juice of a lime or two.

THAT particular one that I posted is the one originally used at the Anchor Bar, and is still being used to this day. As I said, a former classmate of mine worked his way through SUNY Buffalo at the Anchor Bar.
