I put down 6 of their nuclear sauce wings.  They were hot, but nothing that was unbearable.

 

The Triple Atomic wings at Quaker State is hotter...and those were still good.

 

Hottest damn wing I have ever eaten was made by Ranucci (at one of our tailgates a couple seasons ago).  He was testing to see how hot he could make them (were going to be his Squeal Like a Pig wings at his restaurant).  TattooRhino and I were his test cases.....those damn things were PAINFUL.

 

sounds like he used pure capsaicin in those

You live in Huntersville/LKN area, eh?

 

Try Killingtons off of Exit 23. Gold Rush = Phenomenal. Some of the best wings I've had in the Charlotte area. 

 

Never had the wings from JCT. Not a big fan of that place. 

 

Yep. Killington's was the first restaurant I went to when I moved here in 2011. I get their shrimp and grits when I go, but I'll give the wings a shot sometime.

Hickory Tavern?  Are you kidding me?  Their wings are one small notch above Tyson frozen wings.

 

I don't eat HT wings often. The last time I had them was a month ago at my fantasy football draft and they were pretty good. Certainly not the best by any means.

 

I don't eat at chain restaurants but I do like Hickory Tavern and PF Changs. The fiesta salad at HT is very tasty.

The wings are phenomenal. I get 1/2 gold rush and 1/2 honey charred bbq. Their wings and blue cheese dressing is some of the best I've ever had.

Not quite, but close.  Still probably not close to the True Death challenge, which I'm guessing they have to really concentratet he pepper to hit 7.1 million Scoville units they clame.  Only for the idiotic.  AKA Madhatter.

 

Need more info....where can I find said True Death challenge.

 

Because yes.....I am idiotic enough to try any spicy food challenge.

After all of the wing talk yesterday, I was craving them.

 

due to time and location (was heading home from watching my daughter play middle school volleyball), I stopped in for a take out order of wings from Hickory Tavern.

 

It somewhat scratched that itch, but really left me wanting more.

 

thinking about a lunch run at DD Peckers today.
