Thank the Heavens…….
COLLEGE FOOTBALL RETURNS THIS WEEKEND!!!!
As my mighty USC Trojans kick off their season this Saturday, I will be eagerly cheering them on with a buffalo wing in one hand and—let’s be honest, an adult beverage in the other.
But I must confess to you my friends. I am a severely LOYAL and sometimes insane FANATIC when it comes to my USC Trojans and Minnesota Vikings.
You’ve been warned.
FIGHT ON, SC!!!!!!!!

Buffalo Wings
Serves approximately 4
Ingredients:
2 Pounds Chicken Wings, separate wings at the joint with tips removed
Β½ Cup Unsalted Butter
ΒΌ Cup Hot Sauce (I like to use Frank’s Red Hot Sauce)
1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 Teaspoon Onion Powder
1 Cup All Purpose Flour
Vegetable Oil
Fill a large pot or dutch oven with about 2 inches of oil and heat until 350-375 degrees F.
While the oil is heating, toss the chicken in the flour. Shake off excess flour and carefully fry the wings in the heated oil for about 3-4 minutes on each side and until they become golden brown. This may need to be done in batches to not overcrowd your pot.
When the last batches of wings are frying, melt the butter in a small sauce pan. Remove from heat and stir in garlic powder, onion powder, and hot sauce. When the wings have all been fried, toss them with enough of the butter-hot sauce mixture until the wings have been well coated. Serve warm with blue cheese dressing, carrot sticks, and celery sticks.
Haha you are too cute in your SC gear!! I can’t believe football season is here. That means I wont be seeing my husband on weekends anymore! Maybe if I made home chicken wings like these he’d unglue himself from the tv for a minute!

My husband just fell out of his chair and drooled something like, “maaakkkkkeeeeethhhissssssssnooooowwww.”
He’s a fan. π

Amazing. One of our old time favorites, this will surely be added to my compilation of buffalo wings recipe.

One of my favorite players came straight out of USC π a little somebody named Brian Cushing ;P I’m a Texan fan (being from/in Houston and all) but I’m pretty sure we can be friends, as long as you bring the wings LOL
We can still be friends π
Cushing was awesome at ‘SC—came after my time there but fab for the team. I’ve got tons of family in Texas so I’m partial to Houston too!
Thanks for stopping by!
