    Who would have ever thought that the chicken wing would evolve into a virtual culture of culinary twists, turns and loops of flavor. We thought we had a showstopper with the traditional Buffalo versions with varying heat levels. Now chefs and home cooks around the world have taken the wing and let them fly with creativity. Blueberry BBQ for the sweet ping of the blueberry mixture, much like the Peach BBQ that is simply outstanding. Change up the method from oven to air fryer for ease of preparation as well as varying textures. With wings, the sky is not the only limit!
