We actually just had some chicken wings, they were brined and there was the ranch powder in the brine. And I think they said the sauce was hot sauce butter and honey, I didn't cook them. But I did have to tell them to cook them more several times cuz every time they asked me they were still bleeding. Didn't help that the wings were still partially frozen and they did not bother separating them into the pieces it was just the whole giant wing. I've actually had pork burgers it's been quite some time, I don't eat too many burgers anymore cuz my stomach is super sensitive but I am super anemic so I've actually been told by the doctor to eat bloody steak and burgers
Cooks CountryHellothe wings I might try, now never had a pork burger, but eons ago I got LAMB PATTIES,that service was sold,and quit,,but I did much service work in supermarkets, so I asked if they were working lamb,if not I gave them my cell phone,call me I would take about 20 lbs, bagged some in sizes then froze them, I never seen them in any supermarket, for sale, probably not enough people eat lamb, 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Chicken looks delish! A touch of white vinegar in the Buffalo sauce would really seal the deal!
Try a bacon burger! Run some boile bacon through a meat grinder and make a patty. Fry it or grill it and put it on a bun. Dress it up with your toppings a d eat.
Try bacon burgers, shrimp burgers, peanut butter beef burgers, corned beef burgers and brisket burgers.
Texas likes spicy, KC likes a little sweet, New England likes vinegar, California has all kinds.
They need to breed chickens with 4-6 wings! 😀 I go to the store and buy prepared chicken and you just get two. A 8 piece chicken dinner has two wings, two drumsticks, 2 breasts and 2 thighs. I would trade the thighs for 2 more wings.
My favorite BBQ sauce I can get at the store is Sweet Baby Ray's
I love love frikadelen! 🙂
Please do show on not hot wings for people who can't have hot foods
Anymore thanks
When people see us get physics degrees, they always think we're looking for aliens…. when we really get physics degrees, we're ripping open ice paks and measuring their temperature LOL!
One of my favorite grad school spots sold pizza by the pie or by the slice. They also sold a grilled sausage sandwich. Frozen pieces of sausage, about 1/4" thick, shaped to fit on a 6" piece of tossed Baggett. Flipped over and after a minute of so mounded with shredded mozzarella. Dressed with pizza sauce sliced onions and sweet relish. Cut on a diagonal about across the middle 2/3rds. Wonderful meal. Served with fries that were made and salted to order. They place them on a chunk of wax paper and fold it into a bag and close it by twirling it closed.
Chicken wings took off? Chef John please notice. How about gochujong wings?
Kraft is garbage.
Is that Elle narrating at the beginning of the show?
Oh My G***! 😱
🍔 now i must try this recipe …
but i have a quick question …
can it be with full fat ground pork 🐖 or lean ?
i just love ❤️ your program @testkitchen
I love a lot of the recipe thank for posting
Heat franks, butter and add black pepper in a sauce pan, it will thicken Better than microwave
Can you just do a Pork Smashburger or a Sous-vide Pork burger instead (since both methods should still completely cook the Pork Burger patty)?
yuck – vegetable oil basted wings, just grill them on charcoal
An hour for wings? Nah… I will stick with frying them. For burgers I like a 50/50 mix of beef & pork. The beef in the Philippines is terribly dry, and the pork is horribly fatty. The 50/50 mix is about right.
My husband introduced me to pork burgers, they must be regional. No one seems to know about them 'up north'. I prefer them over beef. I've never found the need to add bread, they've always been moist and juicy.
If you have a way to divide the bag of ice into smaller packs, you can keep your food fairly dry. I haven't scientifically tested it's cooling power over time, but mine has kept things safely cold for about a day. Just keep the lid closed (Jeff!).
Or, a pork smash-burger so take advantage of that crusty goodness. Stack two together, with whatever cheese you like with pork 🙂
How did I know you were going to coat the wings with a breading before watching this vid? You know nothing about hot wings you sad, sad, poser peons. Also, are you comparing a single layer of frozen packs to those huge 10 lb. bags? You don't specify, exactly what you're doing — you could fit 2 of those bags on the bottom, but even at 10 lbs. it's a ridiculous comparison. Considering how you botched the wings, I would not be surprised if you did something equally inane with the freeze test.
And you can get bulls eye BBQ sauce for one dollar at the dollar tree. It also won a national taste test. It is the best I have ever tasted but I don't like a sweet sauce
I order chicken wings from Schwan's home delivery service and they come with 2 packs of sauce, but I don't put any on the wings and love the wings so much. The pork burger sounds great and I will have to try that out myself to see how it taste.
I eat the entire wing; waste not want not lol. These recipes look amazing. Too bad I live in an apartment where I don't have a grill. Will definitely try that pork burger.
