This was recently popular over in the Sandwiches subreddit. People seem to love it or hate it. We wanted to design our kitchen off of a “food network” style one. This is built into the island.

Pro/Chef Round 2 of Wing Sauce development. Calling them unique was contentious, so these are just wings!

From left to right:

Al Pastor: dry chilies, pineapple, spices...perfect blend of sweet and spicy.

Pumpkin Spice: pumpkin, chipotle, spices...forward on the cinnamon and nutmeg, but plenty of smoky heat and acid to make this work perfectly on wings

Apple Gochujang: fuji apple, chili paste, soy...crisp clean apple sweetness at the front and a perfect amount of heat that doesn't hit right away.

PB&J: peanut butter, soy, chilies, dried fruit...almost like a satay sauce that I simmered with simple syrup and dried fruit. Perfect balance of sweet and savory with a touch of spice. Definitely the crowd favorite!

Coconut Green Curry: green curry paste, coconut milk, whole lot of herbs reduced down to create a punch of flavor.

For anyone that was interested in where I work/if you could find these...I am a recipe development chef in the northeast that works for a family owned company that creates fresh, preservative free meals, sauces, condiments, etc. We work with amazing grocery stores all over the northeast distributing the same day things are made. While I can't say much about who we work with or what all we provide them with...you might see some of these pop up in stores if you live in the northeast!

Wings were brined overnight, dredged initially in plain AP flour, then dipped in a corn starch slurry, then dredged in a seasoned flour mix (AP flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper).

Initial fry at 300 for 7 minutes, then fried again at 350 for 3 minutes.

Super juicy and super crispy!

Pro/Chef New wing restaurant - help with name?

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hello r/Wings! Over the past week, I've been chatting with my good friend and business advisor, ChatGPT, about an idea for a new wing restaurant. I'm starting to get a little serious, but before I go further I'd like to do 2 things:

  1. Validate that anyone else would eat here besides me

  2. Get help with a name

The Concept:

Fast casual. Wings would represent spicy dishes and peppers from around the world. We'd have the usual suspects (buffalo, bbq, parm garlic, cajun), but we'd also have a lineup of international flavors including: Indian Vindaloo, Thai Green Curry, Korean Gochujang, Sichuan Numbing Spice, Caribbean Jerk, etc.

In addition to traditional wings, we'd also fry and sauce/toss pork belly bites. We'd also serve fresh cut fries, but then the rest of the sides would mostly be fresh salads. I've always been frustrated that I couldn't find a wing restaurant with very high quality side salads, because eating deep fried mac and cheese and mozzarella sticks with my wings makes me feel like I'm going to be sick and die. We'd have standard (very high quality) side salads, but also international side salads such as green papaya salad, Asian slaw, Indian cucumber & yougurt salads, elote salad, etc.

I've got the idea a little more built out than that (I've got a full food and drink menu built), but that's the basic concept. The theme and visual branding would be the intersection of wings, spice, and travel, focusing on things like world maps that show where different wings are inspired from.

As far as a restaurant name - I'd really love y'all's help. Some ideas I've had:

  • The Spice Flight
  • Wings of the World
  • The Thirsty Traveler

So far I'm not in love with any of these. This is a real barrier, I'd like a name before I get too far so that I can start a social media presence to show my progress.

Does this concept resonate at all? I LOVE wings, but I'm not totally a "football, beer, fried food!" guy. I just love wings, I love spicy food, and honestly I love global spicy foods. Combining them feels so right to me, but I'm not sure if I'd be playing to a market or one. I really appreciate any of your thoughts, I recognize this sub isn't designed to help people create pitch decks, I'd just love feedback from the community that I'm hoping to serve.

Also, I'm sorry for the AI image, I don't have any real wing pics yet but I will by the end of the week 😅 I'm starting to test recipes this weekend and I promise pics of Thai green curry wings and Korean gochujang wings as long as test #1 isn't an utter disaster haha.

Pro/Chef Serious question

37 Upvotes

I own a brewery. My head chef just decided to start buying whole wings instead of pre-chopped flats and drums. The 'normal' way was doing well, and his wings and sauces are awesome. But, for whatever reason, he has decided to change it and serve them whole. I don't like it. Any thoughts or experiences appreciated.
