There's a big battle that will be brewing this Super Bowl Sunday. No, it won't be Giants beating up Patriots fans or vice versa. It's wing lovers against rib affectionados. These two football game staples always cause controversy over which is better and which is THE dish to serve.
Both wings and ribs are tasty. They're greasy (if cooked wrong), salty, spicy and flavorful. Yet which one is better? Calories wise wings are a tad less healthier for you. One wing is only 94 calories however most people will devour at least twenty or thirty which means close to two thousand calories. A rack of baby ribs are 250 calories however most big eaters will crunch through three or four racks by the time the fourth quarter comes. However the chicken does come with the healthy benefit of celery sticks (albeit they're dripping with ranch dressing).
What about flavor? Chicken wings can be made with a host of different sauces and marinades. The Wing Zone,a fast food joint specializing in them offers at least twelve different coatings , ranging from the very mild to the very hot.Ribs also can have a plethora of flavors and also can be either dry rubbed or marinaded.Unlike wings which only comes in chicken (although I'm sure there are turkey ones waiting to be discovered), they can be from beef or pork cuts . There is the fat factor as well and there is more mess with ribs than with chicken wings.
What will you have on Super Bowl Sunday. Wings or ribs?Or will you be diplomatic and enjoy both?
