The goal was actually homemade hot wings southern style, but no wings was available. A lot of pre-made ones was all over the Danish stores ... But we were heading for homemade!

We bought a lot of chicken drumsticks instead. To an American, I learned, this is not OK at all :-)

@ Lau, Jan & Janice I'm happy you enjoyed the guide. As mentioned I couldn't find wings without spices - but actually, I find the fat/meat-ratio better with the legs than wings - so that mistake will surely be repeated :-)

I agree, less fat, more meat then wings. Cute guide, made me laugh!
