My wing cravings are cured by the grill. I was planning on doing some tonight but now see Chicago is expecting big storms. If you have a grill, give it a try. High heat grill, season the wings well (for me it's salt, pepper, cayenne, and garlic powder), and grill them for about 25 minutes. The skin will get crispy like a deep fryer but they'll also pick up a deeper flavor than you get from the fryer. Then remove them from the grill into a big bowl and toss with your favorite sauce. Overall, a little less crispy but more flavorful. I prefer them over restaurant wings but you have to set aside 45 minutes or so to make them, not nearly as quick as the fryer.
