I am very happy. This chicken farmer I know got a request from a
restaurant for airline chicken:

"Airline chicken is a food dish comprising a boneless chicken breast
with the drumette attached. Skin on breast with 1st wing joint and
tenderloin attached, otherwise boneless."
source-- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airline_chicken

Consequently, he has about ten pounds of wings that are missing the
drumettes, which he is going to sell me. I hope that chef's customers
love his/her airline chicken. Wing tips are my favorite, but the
middle sections of wings are second best.

If you're making Buffalo wings, you can salt those sections in without
upsetting your guests.

No buffalo wings, just fried. The two parts of the chicken (other
than the organs) that I find the least appealing are the breast and
the drumette, which, IMO, should stay connected to the breast, since
the meat is nearly identical. If I were serving Buffalo wings to
guests, I'd likely serve only the drumettes, and retain the other two
sections to fry up later.

You forgot one important fact: Bryan doesn't give a shit about
"upsetting [his] guests."

Not!!! I love wing tips and the middle, but not crazy about the drumette
part.

We had big arguments here a couple of years ago; end result
was that the breast was boneless but the wing first joint had
a bone in it. Makes no sense at all (yes, I lost the argument.)
I grieve for the chickens these things came from.

No, it's not. Nothing garbage about a chicken wing...now, if you start
putting a bunch of junk on the wing, it could be junk.

Every airline chicken I've ever eaten lately has been boneless. Has
anyone who is arguing over bone vs boneless airline chicken actually
been on an airplane in the last few years and ordered chicken? I
haven't been served chicken with bones in a long time or I wouldn't
order it. Maybe it's a regional thing. I fly cross country and
international.

Buffalo wings are no my favorite, either. I love Thai chicken wings,
made with ginger, chili garlic paste, garlic and a little sugar. I just
wish chicken wings were not so expensive. Congrats to you for scoring these.

I love Buffalo wings, done right, but your Thai wings sound perhaps even
better. Do you have a tried and true favorite recipe? I'll bet SteveW does.


> I just wish chicken wings were not so expensive.

Chicken wings are always overpriced. You're paying for a lot of bone
weight. One year, at Superbowl time, I got in the mood to make some. Since
it was Superbowl time, and a traditional food was the wings, they were WAY
overpriced..... wings - $4.99 per pound.

hahaha yeah right, said I. "I don't think so. Homey don't play that."

Well right next to the wings were cheap whole fryers at $1.59 per pound.

I bought one of those instead, cut it into 9 pieces (ala KFC) and proceeded
to cook all those just like the buffalo wings. I suggest everyone try this
sometime. You like chicken wings with the buttery hot sauce (and dipped in
chunky blue cheese dressing)? Well, try biting down on Buffalo whole thigh
or drumstick or breast. I'll never waste my money on wings again.

The used to leave a few bones on it just to convince the passenger
it was actually chicken and not some fabricated substance.

Now, they no longer care.

Well of course. What were we thinking when we overlooked the fact that
airline, the standard of the epicurean world, serve boneless chicken?
Stupid me, I assumed that it had something to do with eating out of
small serving dishes with plastic utensils.
