Title: Wings and a drunk amazon order today
Post by: HoosierKettle on March 16, 2019, 03:07:38 PM
I'm alone tonight so making wings using a mix of my brothers devilish mix of assorted dehydrated hot peppers and I added some Tony's. They should be very hot.

Also received a package I forgot I ordered. I'm trying to remember my reasoning for getting a 10" instead of 12"?  I vaguely remember thinking since I have a 15 I needed to skip a size to the 12. I would have gotten the 12 hind sight. I treat myself right when I drunk order and I added the handle thing.

Wings are cooking now.

No way. Wings cooked the way I always cook them. Direct.

Love me some Hoosier-style wings.  Only way I do them now.

Nice splurge!

These were absolutely perfect. Crispy outside, fall apart tender and juicy inside and my little brothers pepper powder provided an excellent hotness. Way way too hot if I was cooking for my family but absolutely perfect if you like a good amount of heat.

Can you explain your "direct" method a bit... cooking temp, how long, how often are you flipping, do you battle flare ups, etc?

The added height from the roti ring keeps flare ups in check but I do flip and rotate every 5-10 minutes. Working the wings in and out of hot spots. I don't track cooking temp but it is in the 350-500 range for approximately one hour give or take. I cook them until they are done which is something you can tell by looking at the wings after enough experience. It's hard to explain but they shrink a little and you can just tell after many wing cooks.

Thank you kind sir! Yes, I I've cooked lots of wings over the years so I know exactly what you're talking about when you say they shrink a bit. Was curious how you do them direct. They look awesome!

Those look incredible! I like the style of that pan too. It looks old school, outback type

Just bought a set of three Lodge pans, so they're just starting the culinary journey.  But, so far, they've been great.

Have to give that Roti ring method a try.

Give it a try. You have to keep an eye on them more than indirect methods but it's worth it imo.

Carbon steel or cast iron?

So I guess I need to go out and check my roto ring...I don't think there's anything to support a grate...Is there a simple mod i need to know about?

Yep. I drill three holes for 1/4" bolts and use the bolts already in place for the motor mount to support the great. It's super easy. I put foil tape over the holes of the roti to make it run a little tighter.

I've got some wings on as we speak. The wife was gone last time and she wanted wings.

getting a 10" instead of 12"?

Because you really need both. You really do. I have both.

Nice cookup.
