I bake them, (sprinkled with salt on a rack or crinkled up foil to catch
the fat) on a large rimmed jellyroll pan for 60-75 minutes, turning once
till they are very browned. Then they are dropped into a bowl with 1
part melted butter, 2 parts Frank's hot sauce and tossed until they
are well coated. Serve with either blue cheese or ranch dressing for
dipping and a salad.
