No longer a newbie, but still clueless.
What's the Super Bowl?
I also bake my wings and they're just as crispy as fried: put them on a mesh rack over the pan on 400f. Cook for 25 minutes, then flip and cook till very browned. They basically deep fry themselves in their own fat. Tastes awesome, and still juicy. We do dry rub with sauce to dip.
Same here. putting them on the rack keeps them from braising in their own fat. They come out nice and crispy. I just use S&P before baking, then toss in a mix of Frank's or Texas Pete and melted butter. MMMMMMM!
