Wings so far have been the most voted-on food item we’ve done here. I know personally that wings are one of those foods that if they aren’t good, I’m done and gone.
When it comes to trying new places to eat, I’ll 9 out of 10 times will order a burger. If they can’t get a basic burger right, the rest might not be so good. If the burger is good, the next time I visit, it’s the wings I’m going after.
Preparing The Best Wings In Aiken And Augusta
There are so many ways to get wings to perfection. One of the ways you seem to like them is double-baked. That is one of my favorites as well. You also can’t go wrong with just good wings seasoned and dipped in some ranch.
The ways that rank the best:
- Double Baked
- Grilled
- Air Fryer
- Baked
- Fried
Now when it comes to seasoning and sauce, that list could go on for days. This is very much a personal thing. I just recently tried the spicy Thai Chili at Twin Peaks.
My Recipe Is Simple
I preheat my grill to 210, and while the grill heats up, I dry my wings. Then I add salt and pepper to my wings and a good bit of chipotle seasoning (I like a little kick with the flavor to come). After that, they are ready to hit the grill.
I have a recteq grill so I don’t have to flip them, but if you do a gas or charcoal grill, I’ll flip them after one hour. Then at at 45 minutes into the second hour, I take them off the grill and crank the grill to about 400.
I’ll then have a bowl or two of my sauces ready to be dipped in. I’ll coat them really well and then once the grill is up to 400, I put them back on and just let the sauce bake in. My favorite sauces are Honey Mustard and Honey BBQ.
Maybe one day mine will be voted best wings in Aiken And Augusta. A man can dream, right?
This is what my wings look like after they have been sauced and put back on the grill.
So, here we go. As voted on by you, here are the top 5 best wings in Aiken and Augusta. If you love wings, then this is the list you’ve been waiting on.
