How To Make Chicken Wings (The Easy Way)

Last week I posted Everything But The Bagel Drumsticks. In that post I explained how to make drumsticks and my favorite dry rubs. This week I decided to show you how to make chicken wings, the easy way. I notice many people bake their chicken wings in sauces or fry them. Frying chicken wings are so delicious but the house smells and too much oil! I like to BROIL my wings and then add the sauce. You get a nice crispy and brown wing. Plus you get all the flavors in the sauce, without burning your wings! Add the sauce at the end and still get all the flavor! They are so good and easy to make! No need to guess if they are cooked through!

Everything But The Bagel Drumsticks

Large drumsticks need to have crunchy skin for the ultimate flavor. I made everything but the bagel drumsticks this time around. A seasoning that is so versatile. You won’t need anything but this seasoning to get all the flavor, all in one bottle!

Sweet and Tender Roast Duck (Absolutely Delicious)

Have you ever had duck? To some it may be intimidating, as it’s not an everyday meat people eat. I made a sweet roast and tender duck and boy was it absolutely delicious!
