If hot wings fresh out of the oil are 100/100, then cold wings the next day are at least 98/100. Still crispy, the perfect amount of resistance and chew, the sauce is thicker so you can get more per wing… These were absolutely glorious. (with a piece of garlic sourdough toast to soak up extra sauce)

Sauce: very nearly equal parts Franks, Melinda's Ghost Pepper, and Scatterbrain Cherry Vanilla Whiskey, with a bit of butter and some cayenne/habanero pepper flakes.

    Cold wings make a great on the go snack, toss six in a ziplock and away you go!!

    Eating leftover hot food cold is bizarre to me, but the wings do sound and look delicious.

    Cold wings aren’t my jam but that sauce sounds awesome.

    Oh good it’s not just me. Cold wings the next day are great.

    Oh my god, I didn’t think I’d hear so much cold chicken hate haha. I used to love cold fried chicken.

    I’ll now buy about 5 more wings than I can eat to throw in a salad, or eat up cold. No matter what, it’s better than trying to reheat

    Cold wings? Ew…

    To this I say, “Nay, Nay!”

    I ate leftover hooters wings the other morning cold and they ruled

    Please tell me this is bait… no sane person enjoys cold bone in wings. Maybe sauced boneless wings cold are somewhat edible but biting cold chicken off the bone is just wrong…

    Nah I gotta throw em in the air fryer, make em nice and crispy again!

  10. I love cold wings more than hot wings 🫣. They remind me of going on trips with family. my grandma would fry chicken, make sandwiches, chips, with a capri sun and we were good to go.

    Without a doubt – something especially delicious about a crispy saucy hot wing out of the fridge the next day💯better than a reheated one for sure

    HARD PASS.

    Not even sure that I want the last wing in the batch served to me if it’s cold.

    Why not chuck them into the freezer and make wing-sicles? Sounds like something you might like. 🤣

    I love cold wings. For some reason the sauce tastes hotter to me

    Fuck yeah dude, finally someone who gets it

    I do oddly enjoy it too but I’m not making myself a plate of cold wings lol

    Maybe sneak one out of the fridge like an animal. I used to do it when I was a kid lol

    Cold wing bros unite! I hate reheating wings.
