Alabama NewsCenter — Alabama cooks serve up 6 recipes for wings, ribs and sauces to take March Madness to the max

By: Alabama Living

March Madness is the perfect setting to serve up some tasty homemade wings, ribs or both.

Ed White is a self-described “wing nut.” He loves to eat wings and he loves to cook them, especially for his wife, who is partial to extra-crispy ones. So, he set out on a quest to perfect a recipe that would result in wings that were not only tasty but crispy.

He tried one he called “Spicy Peanut Butter and Jelly Wings,” in honor of relatives who were coming to visit and who had helped make hundreds of PB&J sandwiches as part of an outreach to the homeless in Washington, D.C. “They were tasty but not crispy,” White recalls.

So he tried again, this time adding flour along with cornstarch to the coating. “That made the difference,” says White, a retired parks and recreation superintendent who now works as a plumbing contractor. To get them extra crispy, he recommends cooking them longer, which requires some patience. For his sauce, he likes to use Tapatio brand hot sauce, which has medium heat.
