Set some smoky collard greens, potent candied yams, or dusky black-eyed peas next to those wings... More »

You'll be sitting there, and you'll think you're talking, and they will have wings, and then suddenly they will not, they will have bones. It is an art, it is a skill, it is a nifty bit of work. What is not readily apparent to the novice wing-o-phile, however, is that a real chicken-wing connoisseur surrounds him--or herself with only the very best... More »
