>saving trash cuts

I'd say either pass up eating the wings, or give to your dog. It would be very tedious to remove the skin on the wings. If you want healthy, just go for the breast. Much superior cut for not much more money. You can season and bake just the same.

wings are a huge pain in the ass to remove skin from, the most difficult part on the whole hicken to skin
best bet is to make a slit on one part, grab the skin with a paper towel for grip, and start tearing

Seems like a mad thing to do, but hold the edge of the skin with a paper towel, place a sharp knife against it but don't cut through, saw gently without pressing down and pull sideways.

>>20282921
crispy chicken skin is delicious. Why would you get rid of it?

>>20282980
>>20282986
Hmm... Thanks. I'll sharpen my knife. Yeah, paper towel might work or maybe one of those rubber things that helps people open jars. I tried some backward rip thing that worked kinda well for a few like shocking corn.

>>20282921
>remove the skin
for what purpose
are you slow in the head, yeah?

>>20282994
That's where the fat and hair and other stuff is. I am a meat guy. I want to season the meat the best I can, not the skin. Who gets hungry for skin?

>>20283025
Frfr ong no cap
The skin is the only thing that makes wings worthwhile

>>20283027
You want to take off the most flavorful part of the chicken to give the chicken more flavor?

>>20283027
So you bought chicken wings on sale, thinking you were saving money, but you're going to discard more than half of what you bought in the skins and bones? The crispy skin is part of the allure of wings. Go buy boneless/skinless breasts or thighs if you just want meat. They'll still be cheaper than those wings were on superbowl sale. Give those wings to someone who will appreciate them.

>>20283033
Then please, take the skins and give me the meat.

>>20283034
I have my flavorful rub and some sauce I'll toss them in anyway at the end. Both those things overpower any kind of flavor in the skin.

>>20283040
No, I got them free from a distribution site when my friend called me up to bring the big cooler/truck. I wouldn't pay money for these things when I can get chicken breast on sale for about the same price.

>>20283084
Just thaw them out and deep fry them. Then you can put on whatever rub or sauce you'd like
Your autism will be your undoing

>>20283095
I made one or two wings with the skin on. They looked disgusting with hair and fat everywhere. Lets see when they come out. The fuck you want to eat hair?

>>20283084
OP are you causing shrinkage again?

Let the man peel his wings.

>>20283095
>deep fry

I'm not a restaurant and frying is messy and wasteful for a single batch.

Jesus... the ones with the skin almost look like a little mouse with so much hair. I'm gonna put them under broiler to burn it off.

>>20283103
>hair
>chicken
Lel

Alright, you guys who eat with the skin on are gross.

>>20283139
What do you call this?
>>20283139
Don't give me some technical bullshit. It's hair.

Oops, I meant this.

>>20283144

>>20283144
Feathers, dumbass

>>20283237
That's not true either.

In my many years here, I have read some pretty autistic posts, and this ranks right up there with the best

so this is the new bait thread topic? seems to pop up once a week now

>>20283249
Recipe?

>>20283084
>he's a breastfag
of course. that explains everything.
the man simply has no taste

>>20282921
what the fuck are you doing idiot

>>20283329
A dog like you gets the trash cuts.

Has biden hurt you this much you have to eat scraps? Breast meat is like 2 dollars a pound. Toss that shit or make stock.

>>20282921
>Is there a way for me to remove the best part?

>>20283027
Ah, the fat. So in other words the ACTUAL NUTRITIOUS part.
Just eat less in total. Fat fuck.

>>20283414
Nobody cares you are subhuman pig fatty.

>>20283428
i care

>>20282921
why the fuck would you remove the skin? you retarded?

>>20283103
>hair
lmao nvm

It's amazing what disgusting slop the poors on 4ch eat.

>>20283027
> I am a meat guy
You're retarded is what you are.

>>20284461
>you are literally an idiot. Bet you eat banana peels, plastic wrap, gristle and tendons too. Lol what a loser. No better than a dog.

>>20283027
Looks like that all meat diet has made you a retarded nigger

>>20282921
So I intercepted a bunch of chicken wings around super bowl time
Le heccing up boat!!1!
Anyway, eat the skin

>>20284802
Tyty!

>>20282942
>doesn't understand collagen
In terms of maintaining a youthful appearance with healthy joints, wings and feet are ironically gold

>>20286184
>eating a bunch of hairy gunky skin instead of meat

>>20283027
I know you're a massive retard and all but...let's say hypothetically you're not going to eat the skin right? Still cook it in the skin. Allow all that fat to render and baste the meat and imbue it with tasty flavor while remaining juicy. The skin will be very easy to just tear off when cooked and you can go to town with whatever shitty flavorings you want after that point.

>>20286457
This is sort of what I do when I cook turkey. Push some butter underneath the skin, cook, then peel it all off and discard before cutting it.

>>20286468
I do the same thing. Not butter underneath but when you bake the turkey the skin becomes hard and easy to take off before you cut it. Chicken wings skin just becomes a goopy mess even if you rotate them 4 times in the oven at a high temperature.

>>20286520
Remove the skin from the turkey before you cook. It comes off super easy, season and here's the trick...

Cook it in a bag. It will cook faster and fall off the bone while remaining moist and seasoned.

>>20283103
Don't throw away the skins and bones you absolute tard. Make stock, and from that stock, make gravy. Actually good gravy. Not watery piss with corn starch.
>B-b-but hair
ROAST the shit in the oven, it will burn the filaments away, there should be no feathers or crap left on them anyway. You then deglaze the container while you are at it. The reason you want to use SKINS and BONES and ideally cartilage is because that is what contains the collagen you need for thickening. GELATIN is the thickener for a gravy, not starch.

>>20286785
Not everyone needs stock all the time. But you are right. Using trash cuts like wings can be used to make stock instead of just given to the dogs or tossing.

>>20286999
A reduced stock also takes up way less space in the freezer. Get some nice stainess steel ice cube trays (so they don't absorb flavors or leech shit into the stock), freeze them, toss them in a ziploc and you basically have higher quality bouillon cubes. I really hate having to make stock for a specific recipe so I much prefer to have just some stockpiled, no pun intended.

>>20287174
Could just get a 6 pack bouiyan cube for like a buck at the supermarket.

>>20287212
Pop quiz; What do you get when you put a bouillion cube (essentially a cube of flavored salt) in water and reduce it, anon?
If you have the correct answer, think long and hard about what was just said stock is *for*.
