Hello everyone, this is running on empty
food review
Well, here we are once again and back at it again with another food review now this time
We're changing it up
This is a big deal
it's a wing review and I don't know if we've ever
Tried out this this interesting concept of these things that they call chicken wings, right?
because right you've heard of you can get the drumsticks and
you know you can get
the chicken breasts and you can get
the chicken flappers but not really the wings but Pizza Hut has these things out called chicken wings and
Needless to say they have a new flavor of them out at that
We're really its wing street, but you know Pizza Hut wing Street
They kind of they think partner up we know that they've been doing that for many many years
But they have these smoky sriracha wings that around seven dollars for six piece, which at first I was thinking
Wow, that's a little bit on the pricier end, but not really that's like an industry standard. That's a standard price
But anyway, seven dollars for a six piece. This is a six piece in the smokey
Sriracha wing capsule right there what they are. Well, they're
smoky sriracha wings and
You know, they said it's in a trendy sriracha sauce to lure in all the all the Millennials if you will
but anyway, in addition to the sriracha and the sauce it also features a
jalapeno, chili puree
garlic and a touch of vinegar
so
You know really it sounds like it's gonna be an interesting combination needless to say and certainly something I wanted to check it out
I know there's a lot of big releases that are coming up a lot of things that people are talking about
They're saying you know, hey, can you try this out? Can you try that out?
Some people were saying don't you dare try this next item out?
but you know, I'm I'm fighting through the peer pressure and
You know, especially before the biggest releases. I wanted to try out these wings. I was hearing a little bit about them
They released them earlier in the month
So they're kind of they've been out for a little bit, you know doing some promotions here and there for them again
They've been they've been saying
it's got the trendy sriracha sauce, you know to lure in the Millennials if you will and
They also said of course the limited time, etc, etc. But anyway, six piece of them
We know what's in the sauce. You know, we'll see what they are what they taste like I was thinking should I go with the
Bone-in wings or the boneless ones and I went with the bone-in ones this time around
I figure well, that's more like a traditional wing even though sometimes I like the boneless wings
I think you know that's just what looks best. So opening up grand reveal
Here's the sacrifice like I'm giving you a sacrificial dish of wings
You can see the feathers aren't included
You know they aren't there nor are they capable of flight this time around but they said maybe like 25 years from now
They're working on it, but we're just we're not there yet. Uh
Yeah, the wings are
Semi coated in the sauce like you can see right here for instance
Not the most coated but then there they go they tricked you they tricked you. There's the sauce right there, right? That's your drumstick
and then
There's the other thing
Right there you have that we'll go with this one first. We'll try one of each why not
But like I've been saying we know what's in it, you know, what's in it?
We all know what's in it. And yeah, we'll see what this talk this sauce tastes
Like it'll be an interesting run the smoky sriracha wings from Pizza Hut again
I think I gave the price seven dollars for a six piece. So hey, we'll see what it tastes like they're going in
There you go, you can see there's my nose through that yeah
So one down
We'll try out a little bit of the other one
But I think really what we're you know what I wanted to try out cuz I've had their wings before. Yeah
I've I can't say I'm a wing aficionado from Pizza Hut, but it's certainly something that I'll get before
You know, it's something that I've gotten in the past
I'll be at the boneless ones, but I'm interested in what the sauce tastes like
I think that's what we're all really interested in and we'll try out the
Drumstick, let's just talk for a minute about what I notice about the sauce itself and the waiting to but really the sauce, right?
Here's here's what it is
What I notice that that's interesting to me anyway is actually you know for what it is
It's actually a rather complex blend of flavor flavors, which is nice
It's something that's actually it's nice to see that they're not just saying. All right, you know, it's it's hot
Or oh, it tastes a little sweet, right? It's actually a little bit more of a complex blend and
What they said that you know is in it here
the sriracha the jalapeno
The garlic the touch of vinegar, right?
has these ingredients and
Believe it or not for the most part they all they all pull through they all shine through a little bit
You can definitely taste the sriracha
You can you can taste a little bit of that. Jalapeno like what you really taste in
My opinion is first the sriracha is the prevailing flavor
and then you taste this garlic too that's there and it almost seems like for a second like
These might be conflicting flavors if they might clash
Because granted garlic can be you know, it's potent. It's it's noticeable, but it's not overbearing
Yeah, in this case, you know it's there but it's nothing that is
Too excess it's a good balance and it's a nice little flavor to get I don't get that too often in wings
Then you get that little bit of like, you know a touch of almost like, you know, liquefied
Jalapeno flavoring or flakes or you know, it's just a little touch of it
It's just it's there but you notice - it's not the most spicy in the world though on the menu
They do put a little bit of a flame for emphasis
But I wouldn't go as far as to call them overly spicy
Like I'm gonna have a sip of water mostly cuz I'm thirsty but well salty - that's another thing. I want to mention
So, I think definitely
Yeah for what they are them. They're not bad
I'm not gonna say that they're like, these are the best wings I've ever had in my life or anything
Like that, but hey
What they are
Honestly, I'm
I'm not disappointed
You can see this is this is the leader of them. This is the big one. They call it duh. Big one again
They're kind of gone. Like I wish they were a little more sauced up, but
You know, that's my one thing but that just comes down to individual preparation
That's one thing that people were kind of saying with the last video that I did they were saying
Yeah, but you know, it might be different than from one place to the next and I get that but you know
Sometimes you just notice patterns and consistency. But yeah, I would just maybe even say little extra sauce would be necessary here, but
Wings themselves aren't bad either a
Little bit of that balance between the crispy outer coating and the tender meat on on the interior, of course
Yeah, honestly as far as wings go I'm not I'm not disappointed these are actually some of the better ones and recently
You know I've had times where they look like doing these little you know shriveled up
things in their tiny or their like they're really tough or something and then I'll kind of
take a second glance in it not be I don't think I should really be eating this should I but
Now these are much better. Honestly. I'm satisfied with them. The one thing that I couldn't really taste just a little bit of a
touch of vinegar, but they described it as a touch they and say oh they are these are gonna be
You know soaked in vinegar for 13 days or something like that. I'm just a little bit of a touch
that's the one thing that I think it's missing but
Overall, I'm satisfied with him. I think that it's a good sauce
The quality of the wings themselves is pretty good as well. I just wish there was a little more sauce on them
So that's my one complaint, but honestly, especially for something that you would get at Pizza Hut
Try it give it a shot. I uh, I like it
I think it's a good blend of flavors and I think they did a good job with it
One more complex of a flavor, but they did a good job
I think they they made it very flavorful very tasty and with that out of ten
Uh, you know, I'm gonna give it an eight point one out of ten again, you know, they're not the world's best wings
But definitely for what they are
Either pretty good and yeah check them out
If you want you had a Pizza Hut and you're kind of craving those winds with the pizza
Maybe get the smokey sriracha wings because I'm satisfied with them. I think they did a good job.
So with that that's all I have for you ladies and gentlemen on a final note
