I am sure we have all asked this question, “Why are Buffalo
Wings called Buffalo Wings?!?!!”
Yes, the name is very unique and a bit confusing. Today,
Joe’s New York Pizza, home of the best pizza, Italian, and chicken wings in Las
Vegas, is going to tell you a bit about one of America’s favorite dish and how
it became one of the most beloved foods in the nation.
Origins
Chicken has been used throughout the years to feed many
families. Every part of it can be used to make soup, add to salads, eat with
rice, and other options. However, the location that takes credit for creating
the iconic chicken wing recipe is Anchor bar in Buffalo, New York.
In 1964, owner Teressa Bellissimo, had to cook up a late
night snack for her son and his friends. She got creative and threw the excess
chicken wings into the fryer and dipped it into a delicious buttered spicy
sauce. To cool the heart, she served with a side of fresh cut celery and blue
cheese.
However, please keep in mind this is debatable. Another
restaurant named Wings ‘n’ Things has also claimed to be the first in hot
wings. Once people heard about these delicious wings, many restaurants around
the nation began serving them. They began to mix it up and add different sauces
to it. There are now hundreds of different variations and sauces for chicken
wings. All range in hotness.
