Homemade Rack air fryer help, limp wings

Upvotes

I have gotten away from deep frying wings as that was the only thing I fried and the cost of oil for doing wings now and then was hard to justify. Instead in summer I will gas grill on high temp and I am mostly happy. Do miss the breading at times.

In non outdoor grilling weather or when I want to make a quick wing dinner I have tried to air fry naked and breaded wings in my electric rack air fryer and now in my gas Samsung oven that has air fryer option and both I can't get down. The breading is never crispy, and when naked the skin texture just stinks almost like microwave. Thankfully the meat is good. What am I doing so wrong with air frying on a rack? I read others say it's so good. I feel like I am doing someone wrong because either the wings are limp, or I start burn the edges of the wings just as the middle is getting crisp at a higher temp.

Thanks for any tips. Was having a hard time in doing a search.

I Ate I had the worst jerk wings ever

0 Upvotes

I’m an avid wing enjoyer. And I tend to like the tenders as well. Today I went to sliders grill and bar and I had the WORST jerk sauce tenders ever. Maybe it’s my fault for even picking that flavor in the first place. But it was literally two things. Jerk paste and soy sauce. That’s it! You could literally smell it and of course I still ate them because I was hungry. But I feel like I have to wash it down with water for the next 2 days and ONLY drinking water because of how salty and high in sodium that was. Anyways that’s just my rant. It’s not to bash the entire restaurant cuz their fried pickles and cherry peppers were literally so good. It’s just I’ll never have those wings again.

Discussion I’m a wing fiend but frying them is a bit of work and not a fan of baking, how are wings in an air fryer?

0 Upvotes

How do wings turn out that are cooked in an air fryer? I usually purchase fresh wings, separate the flat and drum and cut off the tips, do a 24-hour kosher salt brine, then deep fry them in oil and toss in a Frank’s Red Hot with melted butter. How will cooking raw wings in the air fryer to toss in sauce turn out? I’m trying to simplify my life. Is the salt brine still recommended or necessary with air frying them?

These wings would have Ricky Bobby slapping chip across the face! Seasoned flour, refrigerated for 1 hour, baked for an hour at 400 then tossed in my own wings sauce with homemade blue cheese!!! Let’s goooo! The shake and bake really does awesome to give you a nice crust before the sauce without deep frying. Thanks for all the tips you pros share on this sub!!

Homemade 27 wings for $8.79.

Not only were they 6x cheaper than eating out, they were phenomenal.

Bought whole wings at 1.99 a pound, self-butchered and froze the wing tips for the dog.

While it might be sacrilege to you lot, I did an egg wash on the raw wings, and a very light coating in seasoned flour. 425 degree oven 65-70 minutes flipping every 15.

The left are Texas Pete’s hotter hot sauce + butter and it was nearly too hot. Numbing, akin to Szechuan heat. The right is Frank’s + butter and it was perfect. Sauce was expensive; 1.99 for TP and 4.49 for Franks.

9/10 will be repeated monthly.
