New fast food discussion/review thread

Thanks Red, as always you are the best.

Those might not be the pinnacle of wings but they are damn close.

I never get wings, but those look pretty darned elite.

Wat

I understand this from a value perspective. Wing prices are rediculous at restaurants, and now a "wing" = one flat or one drummy at most places.

Chicken is inexpensive. I can get wangs for under $3-4/lb retail supermarket prices, and make pretty dang good wangs in the air fryer, which really weakens the case for buying them at restaurants.

However, I did pay $5 for 3 gas station chicken tendies, a pretty decent deal considering the place was next to the middle of nowhere. Each chicken has only one tendy, but two wangs.

sidebar: I love my air fryer. Did Mrs. Paul's fish fillets tonight for first time and they tasted amazing.

OMG, so did I! I made a fish sandwich. (Plus salad and kicked up fries)

I love love love wings and godamn those look amazing

Wing prices are ridiculous and one reason I almost never order them. I'd guess I order them once every two months and I will only order from the best places in the area. Nine Eleven Tavern, Duffs, Bar Bill. Buffalo has plenty of places with awful wings.

I'm going to the original Anchor Bar this Friday. Haven't been there in about 15 years. I'll send Red pics to post.

This will be a rare back to back wing weekend.

I don't see any grill marks on those wings, so obvi can't be pinnacle wings.

Fried + tossed + grilled >>>> Fried + tossed, you know, like, IMO, man.

Those wings do look great.

Can't help on mobile though.

As mentioned, wings are terrible value. Also, while good wings are really good, bad wings are horrifying. I've seen too many poorly prepared chicken products. If I want wings, I'm probably going to make them myself.

Burger King in the app has with $1 purchase:

Today - Free Whopper Jr
Tuesday - Free original chicken sandwich
Wednesday - Free cheeseburger

There's something special about the OG chicky sandie

I forgot to mention, nice plate of wangs there. I grew up eating them with white rice, I wonder if any wang places in buffalo offers rice?

I need to pick up wangs from the market now.

edit: ty for the bk heads up! love it when people post the hot deals

Dayum!

Yeah basically you know what to expect with the OCS. There's no surprises. And there's a baseline of value, which I'd say as, at worst mediocre, and then there's that element of nostalgia; which can really hit the spot if you haven't had one in a while.

been snacking on culver's cheese curds like 3x a week

Today is National Cheeseburger Day.
Lots and lots of Cheeseburger deals out there today.

Had a deal for a free CFA. Walked up; that, hash browns and a cup of water made a pretty good breakfast for < $2.

I'm going with the McDonald's 50c double cheeseburger. (plus some CFA rewards too)

.50 double chee **** ME UPPPPP

You can only get one? Looks like you need an app, so none for me.

Wendy's is supposed to have a one penny JBC, but not where I live. :-(

ya hadn't had one in years (loved the Italian chicken sandwich) but they had a BOGO and I got em with no lettuce no mayo (just plain) and man they were super delicious.

turns out BK is one of my fav ff joints.
