Anchor Bar Buffalo Wings (The Original!)

Enjoy the REAL Buffalo Wings recipe from the Anchor Bar in Buffalo.

Ingredients

Sauce

• 6 tablespoons Louisiana Hot Sauce
• 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine-not butter
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1/8 teaspoon celery seed
• 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
• Dash of black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 to 2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce

Accompaniments

• Carrot and celery sticks
• Marie's Bleu Cheese Dressing

Method

1. The Sauce: This makes enough for about 30 "wingettes." Mix all the ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat until the margarine is completely melted. Stir occasionally.
2. The Wings: Fry the wings in a deep fryer set at 375 degrees F using vegetable or peanut oil. Fry 15 wings at a time for 12-15 minutes.
3. Drain the wings for a few minutes then put them in a bowl. After all the wings have been fried, pour the sauce over them, cover the bowl, and shake to completely coat the wings.
4. They can be eaten now, or you can put them on a baking sheet and bake them for a few minutes to get an extra-crispy coating.
5. Serve with carrot and celery sticks and Marie's Bleu Cheese Dressing, and cold beer (Genee Cream Ale is traditional).
