Buffalo Wing Sauce Vs. Marinade

Buffalo wings are traditionally deep fried and slathered with Buffalo wing sauce.

But these baked Buffalo wings are what I prefer.

The wings are broiled after they’ve been marinating in a spicy sauce.

Broiled Vs. Fried Buffalo Wings

However, we’ve foundthe quality of intact, fresh chicken wings to be much better.

Theyre meatier and their skin is more supple.
