Frequently Asked Questions About Wing

How many wings per person for a party?

As an appetizer, plan for 4-6 wings per person. If wings are the main dish, plan for 10-12 wings per person. For a Super Bowl party, assume everyone's hungry and go with 8-10.

Should I order bone-in or boneless wings?

Bone-in wings are traditional and often preferred by wing enthusiasts. Boneless wings are easier to eat and better for formal settings. Consider offering both.

How do I keep wings crispy?

Don't cover wings or stack them, as this creates steam. Keep them warm on a wire rack in a 200°F oven. Serve sauces on the side to maintain crispiness longer.
