Wingstop vs. Buffalo Wild Wings Taste Test

Today Buffalo Wild Wings and the

wings

stop going from peak to rhythm, let's talk about that mythical good day. Now we've had a

taste

of feuding food chains for over a year, but we've never successfully started a food dispute until now, yeah, we've been stirring the pot on Twitter for a while between Red Lobster and Joe's Crab Shack we tried to do it but all that came back were crickets yeah but this time the folks at Buffalo Wild Wings and Wing Stop we're a toss game and it all started when we tweeted this hey wing stop we heard Buffalo Wild Wings said your call wing sucked because customers have a wing and want to stop commenting, they did care to comment with the sick burnt hot sauce tweeting, they all crowned us King and Also the Twitter hashtag reviewed the tape and then put up a photo of you.

It is by far the best wing I have ever had. It's me. I'm wearing a blindfold, but I don't know if it's me. I admit my yes because a couple of years ago. Stott was crowned lord of the

wings

during our original blind wing

taste

test

, but the bee came in second place and who knows, maybe our palates have changed in two years and today we're not just wing-to-wing, but let's go deeper, we weren't done tweeting next, we tweeted hey Buffalo Wild Wings Wing Stop said that if they were both cast in the classic buddy comedy Twins Wing Stop they would be Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito and you would still be a restaurant that no one goes to wants to go to the thoughts, okay, we prepared for what would come next, they responded with this, a link image and this guy has jokes, albeit sarcastic, so it's you, you are both using us against ourselves with what we have done, a movie that we are going to put against ourselves against our mouths yes, we are going to put you against our mouths it's time to find out which mother wings are crowing beating the sky and which ones are airplane trash it's time for food fights Buffalo Wild Wings vs. .

Alas, enough of everything. well we are going to try some classic dishes from each restaurant we will rate them on a scale of one to ten in the restaurant with the most points in the end we will be crowned as the lord of the wings return of the wing Yes, and we will have the opportunity to sponsor an episode of GMM , that's what you really want now we've ordered at both locations but they're both backed up so maybe we should check in but Stevie can we call Buffalo Wild Wings and put it in? on speaker, sure, let me dial the number now, okay, um, cool, thanks for calling Buffalo Wild Wings, I'm the former Domino's employee, B, you're talking nonsense, how can I help you?

Do you remember me when you came in? the show sorry his name is ruff McKagan Rhett mcLaughlin from good morning mythical I don't worry about that listen we ordered some food from you guys we haven't received it yet so can you tell us where it is? Oh, are you? red yes, yes, I see your order right here, it will be like two minutes, two minutes left. Sorry, I'm all over the place today. My girlfriend Patty and I had a fight. Can we do something? to help if you happen to talk to her, could you tell her that she is my butterfly sugar baby, okay butterfly sugar baby, we can do it, okay, we can wait two minutes for Dirk Stevie, can you call Wingstop?

Let's see what happens, oh God. have them on speed dial here we go okay hello thanks for calling Wang stop this is former Pizza Hut employee Patty how can I help make this phone call? Wingstop, so I'm going to take my break. We are trying to track the status of our order. is linked oh i remember you, your friend really looks like dead chicken meat, yes it's me, i rent the friend and in fact i have a message for you from dirk, he wants me to tell you that you're his butterfly, sweet, you order will be there.

Now, we start with original wings from both places. What do we have here? Stevie on the red side. Our Buffalo Wild Wings. Original wings with

buffalo

sauce. They are classified as spicy on their menus. Hot meter of mild, medium hot and

wild

. Cost of a basket of 10 wings. 1549 it's not too hot nor too hot it builds up a little over the course of eating this plane it looks like it has a lot of sauce but it gets you and look how much redder the wings are Yes the wings don't look super red on your side , they link our wings with original hot sauce, they are approximately medium spicy according to their scale and a basket of 10 wings costs 959, as well as six dollars less for ten, there is a chicken II. flavor that actually comes across as do you notice a little bit of chicken?

I try this. I'm a big fan. You know, big fan. straight wing, why didn't we do hot versus hot? What was the reason why they are both original? Their original sauces is just the Buffalo Wild Wings saw sauce is a little spicier than the other one and if you look at the size, I mean. pretty capable yeah I mean I took a bigger one but I don't know because you know there's a lot of variability and there's a little bit of humidity. Do you notice that yes, the Wingstop is drier? Well, let's continue with one. At the same time this is a really good wing, very solid, I'll give it an 8.

I agree, I'll give it an 8 and just because of how dry it is here and it's a little less flavorful, it's close, although I'm going for a 7, okay, so we had here and seven here for the two of us, okay, now we're going to move on to some dry wings. I was going to take that one. I bought it first. It looks good, so on the red side our Buffalo. Chipotle BBQ seasoned dry wings from Wild Wings, they are medium and spicy and you can buy a hundred of these for 119 49 mm-hmm, this takes me to Memphis with that dry touch, it's super subtle, so on the long side our wing Louisiana stops dead.

Rub the wings with a medium level of spice and you can buy a hundred of these for eighty-eight ninety-nine. It has more flavor, mmm, more flavor. The wing stop has like an old seasoning base. You feel like I feel like this is a gun with more flavor and more of the flavor that I want from a dry rub. I'm going to give you these are not my favorites. I'm going to give it a six. I really like these, but for me, man, I shoot you feeling. The pressure, right? I know. I'm going to give them an eight because I really like it, but then this rises over the top and with the first one you get that kick, but don't you?

I have to do it. eat another piece. I'm going to use eight of these here, they're tastier, but you know I'm going to make a schedule that I'll give you tonight too so they're the same.

Let yourself be surprised by the access. in the Stevie bonus round, what's going on on the red side, our Buffalo Wild Wings Boneless Mango Habanero Wings, the sauce is classified as

wild

which is the spicier end of the spice meter and ten boneless pieces cost thirteen, twenty nine, they start out sweet and sour, get wild Josh, you, you I have the inside scoop on these sauces here so I'm a big customer of both of these restaurants and Buffalo Wild Wings has anecdotally last had mango habanero for me since at least 2008 and confirmed by Yelp reviews, while Wing Detente, they saw them in 2013, as evidenced by a press release in PR Newswire, calm, so they stole it from you, they stole it, so Stevie, what is that?

Know? This difference here, yeah, those are Wingstop, boneless habanero mango with wings. They are classified as hot on their spice scale. Wow, I'm in trouble and you can buy ten of these for only 849. The wings don't stop like hot wings. Hair dryer inside like more fruity like a fruitier sauce, but really very good hmm, I'm a ferret. You'll be fine, but he's a brave man who's really good. I mean, we're definitely in the realm of the best chicken nuggets I've ever had because I can't call these wings boneless, I just can't do them right. I know you talked about this on your podcast.

I firmly believe these are not Nuggets and I think of you as less of a person for calling them that, oh man okay these are better than I thought they would be. I'm going eight on these. I'm just going by the smell of this melon, okay, I mean, it smells like it's going to burn your insides, it tastes so good. I like Buffalo Wild Wings a little better. I'm going to give them a six and now I'm going to change to a five here on your scale. I don't like them as much as other things I've eaten like bones and if it's a wing I want it to actually be wing meat.

This is really difficult for me. they're a little bit spicier, these are a little fruity ER and I think in ways that I didn't really anticipate, I'm leaning towards spice, so I'm going to give them a seven, so now we move beyond the wings. to the Wing Fringe Newsies, so on the red side our Buffalo Wild Wings regular size natural cut fries with customizable toppings we chose cheddar jack cheese and spicy dry desert seasoning and the price for this pile of glory is 559, you have to take it. Go back to what these would have been like, mm-hmm, off of them, the fire because they've kind of become, you know, I mean, man, it's the cheese, you know a new ease, but you've got, you've got the sprinkle things. who were in the second round.

I think they're good, but I have to say I've had a love affair with Wingstop fries, so these are Louisiana voodoo fries, fresh cut from Idaho potatoes topped with ranch cheese sauce and their signature Cajun seasoning and the regular side is 379, they really stand up to the

test

of delivery. I got so much better than then Buffalo Wow, they're a little soggy now at this point but that's why when you order takeout at Wingstop you can get they're very well done the fries like it's a check box oh it's always check that box you can see the freshness of the cuts like you can you can visualize the ice man all day the potato just wrapping this this puppy are good five four these are something really very special the next level seven are you a tough man are you a tough critic?

What would it take to be a ten to get a 10 from you? I'm not going to take another bite I'm not going to give these a 10 hmm okay I'll give this an 8 because the combination is key to improving your kill yeah I can't help but get hot. I'm on the nine for eight and a nine, okay, final round desserts, so on the red side. It's Buffalo Wild Wings chocolate fudge cake and you can have all that for 629 all that cake, oh that cake that's so thick, it's like some kind of devil's food cake, okay you can have vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce on top . this, but we didn't put it in because we wanted you to try it so it was more comparable to the ring stuff, we just wanted it to be as fair as possible, it's a good cake, it's not, I mean, I've had a lot better cakes, that it's the only thing, it looks a little better than it is, so get your hopes up now, this doesn't look good at all, it looks like a dry brownie, its wings just stop, the dessert option, the triple chocolate chunk brownie , the menu.

It says it's the perfect combination of chocolate chips and chocolate chunks and it's only $1.99 mmm, that's a good pick up, it's not, it looks dry, but what's more, it's very moist when a brownie is bad, it's really bad, but when a brownie is good, it's better than good cake, okay, I'm going to give up, this is it, this is good, I'm going to give it a five, I'm going to go for 6, but this brownie here I have to give it a seven, I'll get a seven. Also, very good, a very solid brownie, so there we have it.

All scores are on Stevie, where do we land? It sounds like your favorite wing restaurant is Wings Stop. Okay, a wing knight is back on top and retains the title of Lord of.
