Buffalo Wings

-

Shareable, affordable and sublime with an ice-cold beer, these spicy wings are the go-to snack for sporting occasions.

A staple of the Superbowl, they were first created in 1964 in the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York state, when owner Teressa Bellissimo cooked leftover wings in hot sauce as a late-night snack for her son Dominic and his friends. An instant hit, they were put on the menu as “Buffalo Wings” and served with celery sticks and a blue cheese sauce.

The joint is still going strong, selling wings, sauces and the obligatory merchandis­e. You can even buy a chicken wing hat for $49.99! visitbuffa­loniagara.com, anchorbar.com
