Fake Fried Chicken

Got my MIES today from Rodak's.
That was FAST.

Did my first batch of wings with the MIES today and I am impressed. Used the 'Spicy Blend" that is not at all hot, but full of flavor. Wifey does not do hot and she wolfed these wings. Used the Big Easy for the first test, next will be the Treager. I really love this stuff! I might look into a bulk purchase, I did not look into the shelf life of this product yet.
When I just ran warm water over the wings, it clumped up quite a bit. Rinse those baby's off after removing from the package and leave them in a collender while getting to room temp. they will still be moist enough for the magic to stick. They coated quite well like that.
Had to rely on my Thermapen for this one cause the wings just do not look the same after 30 minutes. Some of the smaller wings showed 220 degrees, scorched earth on any gasser. Much slower to show any color. Did the whole cook "lid on", which is something I do not normally do. All of the wings were very moist and none were over cooked. I am really looking foreward to more experiments with veggies and taters!

Very nice!

From what I read, the 'shelf life' is 1 year.  Longer if you stash the bags in the freezer.

That looks really good!

I tried mine today too, but just a quick dirty test.  Cut a chicken breast into squares, breaded, tossed in the oven in a foil pan.  Sprayed the pan first, but they still stuck, so it didn't make a "pretty picture" (I just put the camera away)---but still tasted GREAT.  I just used the regular.  Will try some spicy next time.

Sonny, it's about d@mn time you finally went and picked up that "friend". ;)

Can't wait to get to see your friend!

[Smokin Soon]

I do think now, that is just a matter on how I will crank up the heat in this mix, and see how it does. Will start with red pepper and some added caymen and see what stokes.
