Wing Techniques

The Bow-Tie (Advanced) 

Originator: Dirty Ernie

Memphis, TN

1. Grasp the "wing" portion and remove the "nub".

2.  Next you need to disconnect each of the two bones inside while keeping the wing intact. This can be done by employing a similar technique as is used for "the fister" but this time don't remove the bones, just gently give each of them a twist inside the meat to free them up...It is very important for the wing to remain in its original shape.

3.  Grab the wing at each end with two hands... One hand holding the end of the large bone, and the other hand holding the opposite end of the small bone.

4.  Chomp your teeth around the entire middle of the wing while holding the ends near the corners of your mouth.

5.  Next, remove the bones simultaneously from the opposite sides of your mouth in a "Bow-tie" fashion. All of the meat should be hanging from your mouth as you proudly display the two perfectly clean bones. Gobble it up and give your friends a messy high five for you have just completed "The Bow-tie"

Stealth: To amaze your family and friends, secretly prepare the bones in a wing for "the bow-tie" and set it aside on your plate. Later in the meal, grab the wing and hold it up, yelling "BOW-TIE!" then neatly perform the most perfect bowtie in human history, seemingly without even getting your fingers messy... Good luck
