Crispy deep fried turkey wings. I actually doesn’t get any better than that! These wings are brined for 8 hours before they are fried to golden perfection. Once done, the meat is extremely moist and is practically falling off of the bone. If that doesn’t make your mouth water, we need to check out pulse! Give this recipe a try ASAP. You won’t regret it!

What kind of oil do you use and how much? Looks good.
I use corn oil, or canola. Enough to deep fry with, depending on what you’re frying in.
I used Peanut Oil and it was absolutely delicious!
I’ll be frying my turkey wings on today (it’s early I know but I’m up preparing my wings). I will be using your recipe. The only thing is, I bought Crisco Vegetable Oil. Do it matter on the type of oil? I really hope it don’t make a difference. This will be my very first time frying turkey wings. Wish me luck!!! Thank you
I can’t find a printable copy of the deep fried turkey wings
I fixed it. It’s there 🙂
Thank you, I know you have a family an all and you are great at what you do I would like to say to you and your family I think you are the most beautiful woman this side of heaven thanks again for the recipe
Awee. Thanks so much Charles!
Can you fry them in vegetable oil or is there a certain oil to use?
Hi Darlene! Yes ma’am, you can use vegetable oil.
What if you don’t have the time to brine in buttermilk for the 8 hours? Will it still come out good?
It will not come out as flavorful.
You should use a high-resolution oil like a peanut oil because it doesn’t burn fast and it would withstand the amount of time it takes to fry a turkey wing
Hi Rosie,
Is their a specific size that should be used for this recipe? I notice these are rather small compared to your other turkey wing recipes? I apologize ahead of time for all these turkey wing questions I’m posting lol. I think I’m going to base Christmas dinner on all of your recipes. Thanks!
Try a 9×13.
About how long did it take to them
It depends in the size of the wings.
Tried those turkey wings..THEY ARE THE BEST!!
