I was born and raised in Buffalo, worked at Buffalo General Hospital for 20 years, which is one block away form the Anchor Bar where Buffalo wings were invented. I do know the recipe, and here it is. Deep fry your wings, while screaming hot but drained of oil, mix with butter and your favorite hot sauce. After that, If you want charbaque, throw them on the grill for a few minutes. Either way, absolutely delicious and authentic.
