Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Down in this neck of the woods ... If I am having a big party and need wings, McDivot's Wings and Raw Bar, in Westchase, has been my goto for 20 years. They've never let me down. When we go out with friends we frequent Abe's Place on Missouri Ave, Ker's Wing House on Ulmerton Road, and the original Hooters on Gulf-To-Bay in Clearwater. I still prefer Beef O'Brady's over most other places. The non-breaded wings at Publix are as good as any. Breaded wings are straight trash, if you ask me. You can dredge them in a flour or cornstarch was to add to crispiness if you're trying them, but breading is a non-starter, for me. Hooters wings are a hard no.

I don't know about other locations, but the one in Clearwater has non-breaded "naked" wings and they are as good any wing I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDEaston Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I don't know about other locations, but the one in Clearwater has non-breaded "naked" wings and they are as good any wing I've ever had. The last time I was at the one in Lexington they had the smoked naked, dry rubbed wings. They were on par with pies and pints as far as chain restaurants go. They weren't as large but tasted great.

Kentucky Windage Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Just had some wings at Mac's Pizza Pub. Their wings are perfectly fried. I typically like my wings smothered in sauce. Waiter told me to try sauce on the side. They were legit. Cheese fries are the real deal too. It's the same place that was a BW3, then Dunker in Cold Spring. Beer selection is A+ too for those who like the crafties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjs4470 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I’ll second River City Drafthouse as having great wings. Every time the wife and I head to Bellarmine for my son, we stop there. In NKY, I still will stick with Knuck ‘n Futz, mainly because they are so close to home. They aren’t as good as they used to be, but are still solid. My favorite wings in Cincy are Knockback Nats. I simply love smoked wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBWC41 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Wings are such a simple item. I’ve never had a “bad” wing.... I make mine at home, cold smoked then fried. No breading and some bdubs spicy garlic or a homemade buffalo sauce. It’s tough to mess up wings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 The Four Mile Pig within Alexandria Pig has some great wings. I'd definitely recommend the dry rub. Get a side of fries too with some of their bourbon BBQ sauce. Excellent. Have Go Hop Yourself or two and you're all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da champ Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Wife & I had dinner at KSR Bar & Grille. I'm gonna say their wings may have been the best I've had. Fall of the bone tender and not highly breaded. Very ,very good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldweatherfan Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 The non-breaded wings at Publix are as good as any. I eat a lot of Publix non-breaded. Sometimes I spice them up with one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBWC41 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I’m not much on boneless wings these days but the Texas Roadhouse has a damn fine boneless wing. It’s lightly breaded and delicious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Worst National Chicken Wing Day, ever. I will never go to the Buffalo Wild Wings in Oldsmar, again. In fact, the experience was so bad, I may never go to BWW anywhere else, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
