Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon onion salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup shortening

Buffalo Hot Sauce:

  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ cup hot pepper sauce or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Toss chicken wings in a large bowl with apple cider vinegar, garlic salt, paprika, red pepper flakes, onion salt, and black pepper to coat; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours.
  • Scatter flour over chicken wings; toss to coat. Discard any remaining marinade.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Heat shortening in a large skillet over medium-high heat; fry chicken in hot shortening until golden, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer fried chicken to a baking sheet.
  • Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken to a paper towel-lined platter to drain.
  • Make sauce: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic in melted butter until translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir hot sauce into butter-garlic mixture; reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer sauce to a large bowl.
  • Working in batches, add chicken to sauce in the bowl and turn to coat. Drizzle any remaining sauce over wings to serve.
