When I can’t get to the nearest Quaker Steak & Lube (about 2 hours from here in Indy), I do the next-best-thing and make my version of their wings here. I make two versions, bone-in (using Fire-Eater rub) or boneless (triple battered and fried). I then coat the wings in sauce. This time I used the insanely good Thai ‘R’ Cracker sauce. It’s got a bit of kick, but not so much that you’re gonna cry. And it’s got a bit of sweet to it too. It’s perfect with a bit of cool Ranch sauce on the side. Or serve the wings with more Thai ‘R’ Cracker sauce for a more kicked-up dipping sauce.

I cooked my bone-in wings on my Char-Broil The Big Easy TRU-Infrared Oil-less Turkey Fryer using the Wingin’ator 3000 modification, but you can cook them on the grill, in the oven, or in a deep fryer. My boneless version is cooked in a deep fryer or in a few inches of oil in a Dutch oven.

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.
