mostly about chicken wings

tonight i'm going to eat chicken wings.
more importantly boneless chicken wings.  buffalo wild wings i'm coming for you.

which leads me to this confession.

itotallycheckoutallmenusandplanwhati'mgoingtoeatbeforeigettotherestaurant.

did you catch that?  i don't want to have to repeat it because it pains me to say it out loud and mainly because shitler just rips on me incessantly for it.

but really - how can i not.  i think it's important to go in with a game plan of all the things i'm going to eat in order to insure that i've made a well-thought out choice.  nothing is worse than sitting at the table while the server impatiently stares at you because they have 8,000 more important things to be doing than listening to you mull over whether or not you want deep fried pickles (that's a joke - i always want deep fried pickles) but you get my point.  it's even worse (trust me - i know) when you start to panic and have to say the dreaded words "OMG take my order last!"

but anyway.  i didn't come here to lament to you all the ordering woes of our modern day society but instead to let you know what i think i'm going to eat tonight.  YOU'RE SO LUCKY.

first up.  immediately order water for guzzling purposes.  it's important to start out hydrated when facing a night of wings and booze.  then i'll move on to the things of alcoholic nature.  i haven't yet hammered out what i'm going to come out of the gate yet with.  specialty drink or beer.  beer or specialty drink.  only time will tell.  but then i'm going to order deep fried pickles because HELLO if you don't like and/or order them then i'm convinced that you're probably a terrorist.  and then my friends, since it's boneless thursday, means i'm going to roll up my sleeves and go balls deep on said boneless wings.  the only thing i haven't hammered out yet is the types of sauces i want because apparently the last time i went to buffalo wild wings it must have been the stone age and also the birthplace of simple sauces because upon looking at the menu there were like a kajillion new sauces that i have never heard of but immediately cued a pavlovian response.  typically i go straight for the tried and true hot because it's hot enough for me to enjoy but still be reasonably uncomfortable.  
BUT NOW THERE ARE MORE CHOICES.  
choices like jammin' jalapeno, desert heat, caribbean jerk (i think they always had this one), and thai curry and unfortunately i want to order all of them and then rub them all over my body which the more i think about the more i realize is a terrible idea because it might burn patches of my skin off and then people will think i'm doing krokodil.
which i'm not.

so basically i have a general idea of the things i'm going to cram down my gullet later tonight.
and i wanted you to know.  and i also wouldn't mind if you suggested a preference for sauce because it would help my addled brain a lot.  but like don't tell me the garlic kind whatever because i'll hit you.

p.s. this picture has nothing to do with chicken wings but i love it oh so much.

  5. We used to have a BWW here but it closed bc the owners were fucktards and apparently didn't know how to keep a restaurant out of bankruptcy.

    On anothe note onenof my favorites is chiotle bbq and derek likes mango habanero but that is a little to hot for my tastebuds... I think its like third hottest on their never ending list.

  6. I have been partaking in boneless thursdays for a mere 7 months straight and I have it down to my 3 favorites; Mango Habenero, Jammin Jalepeno and Asian zing. Sometimes I substitute the Asian zing for the parmesean garlic or honey bbq. Mmmm my mouth just waters thinking about the yumy goodness! I would stay away from the dry seasonings. Its like eating a chicken nugget with flavored salt.

  7. I love chicken wings more than I love most anything. There are only three options in my mind at BWW: SPicy Garlic (the best one of all the ones), Asian Zing, and the Thai one. this post made me giggle because i am not a fan of pre looking at menu and Jose is, he thinks I am a weirdo for not wanting to know in advance, so maybe you are the normal one after all.

  11. And here I thought I was the only one who had to pre-plan and look at the menu online to narrow down and decide on my order upon entering the restaurant. Don't even get me started on how life shattering my evening becomes if there is a change of venue. Full blown panic attack as I try quickly to pull the place up on my phone and find a menu in time. I am sweating a little just thinking about it. Fried pickles are my favorite!

  12. Damn- now I want bonless wings, fried pickles and a beer. Those who don't order fried pickles aren't american. Jerk sauce is AMAZING, also because I like saying it... lol..

  13. My sister picks her food items out before we go to a restaurant but will still say "OMG let me order last." As for the wings, I am a true buffalo girl and I refuse to step out of my box therefore I am of no help. Enjoy dinner!

  15. You just wrote a post about chicken wings and got more comments than I get in a week. You little shit, I love you.

  16. I do the same. I can't make a decision when I'm facing an entire menu full of shit to pick from, it's just too much and I love food too much. no shame in prepicking!

  17. Deep fried pickles for the win. Fuck yes.

    Now I want some... but I'm lying in bed on a Saturday morning and Husband refuses to go find some for me. Jerk.

  20. Can you please get out of my head? At least if you're going to be there bring tequila! I'm the worst when it comes to ordering out. I always insist on going last because I change my mind even as I'm placing the order. I don't know when it got that way. I always stalk the menu before I even leave the house. I have a plan in mind, and then we sit down and I want everything else.
