Why on earth is butter forbidden as substitute for margarine? I don't buy margarine...ever.

Anchor Bar Buffalo Wings
(The Original!!!)
Source: Ladies Home Journal - August 1991 - This is supposed to be the REAL Buffalo Wing recipe from the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY.
This makes enough for about 30 "wingettes."

Sauce

6 tbsps Louisiana Hot Sauce
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine only (no butter)
1 tbsp white vinegar
1/8 tsp celery seed
1/8 to 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp garlic salt
Dash black pepper
1/4 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 to 2 tsps Tabasco sauce
Carrot and celery sticks
Marie's Bleu Cheese Dressing
30 Chicken wings

The Sauce:
Mix all the ingredients in a small sauce pan over low heat until the margarine is completely melted. Stir occasionally.
The Wings:
Fry the wings in a deep fryer set at 375 degrees F using vegetable or peanut oil. Fry 15 wings at a time for 12 to 15 minutes. Drain the wings for a few minutes then put them in a bowl. After all the wings have been fried, pour the sauce over them, cover the bowl, and shake to completely coat the wings. They can be eaten now, or you can put them on a baking sheet and bake them for a few minutes to get an extra-crispy coating. Serve with carrot and celery sticks and Marie's Bleu Cheese Dressing and cold beer (Genee Cream Ale is traditional).
