LOL at blind taste test for wings from all those places. It would be very easy to know which each wing came from.

I got them all correct (we rated and then guessed for fun) but was the only judge to do so. It's harder than you think when it's truly blind. You forget how much visual factors into things.

I'd love to hear the full results

W&M won but not by a landslide. Flavor carried it (highest score there on most judge cards) but meatiness/texture hurt it.
WS actually came in second.
My personal second Plucker's came in 3rd.

W&M does very well when you're just trying a bite of one wing. They'd be hurt if you compared the amount of chicken you get for your money. (Though they still get my money a lot.)

That's neat. Thanks for sharing.

W&M definitely is on the smaller side….felt like they trended much smaller year over year before finally settling with today's wing.

Their sauce and crispness is very hard to beat.

W&M best wing sauce (medium garlic parm is my go to) but smallest wing.
My go to at Pluckers, Anchor, and Wing Stop is the Cajun dry rub.
Wing Stop has best ranch but worst service.

Haven't set foot in a BWW in probably a decade.

They were pretty much direct competitors opening in the same market at a similar time. One had a superior location and atmosphere and was more well known prior to opening.


Also, superior marketing. 5 free wings at almost every home sporting events gets lots of people's attention.

So first Mo's and now Anchor Bar -- WHERE in this town can I go (besides Sonic) for a soft pretzel with cheese?!

If you're willing to drive, Wildflyer in downtown Navasota makes a great pretzel with beer cheese. They also serve beer.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on Angry Elephant's triple fried wings.

I will go there soon and report back. I've been there only once for food, but on the Hot Dog recommendation. But I've heard about these wings enough that it's time to give it a try.

Triple fried - I assume it's battered? If so, I'll have to wait until my current diet subsides.

I dont think they have batter. If they do it is very light.

Also, Grand Station actually has a really good pretzel.

I don't remember if you can get cheese at the Brauhaus but they have an excellent pretzel.

Carneys and The Station scratch the wings itch for me, esp the latter.

There is no meat on the W&M wings so it must have just been the sauce and dip y'all were judging. Willies, Angry Elephant, Walkons, Wingstop just a few off the top of my head that are much better. Pluckers wings are better but their service sucks so bad (3x) we don't go anymore.

If Wings and More won.... let me know the vote for things like Pizza Burgers etc so i can avoid you top spots

The fact anchor was last is a complete joke

I don't eat eggs. Or very rarely. I like that I can get a junior burger. I can only do so many kolaches.

Dang. I want to come just to try the fresh flour and corn tortillas. That menu looks tasty. I know taco joints are a dime a dozen in this town and it's competitive as hell but that looks like a nice tight menu. Good job!

Just curious. Does the "steak boss" have any steak on it?
Costa and Andreas
How long do you want to ignore this user?
All the menu all the time
Costa and Andreas
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Lol yes. In a drive thru application, we strive to declutter the menu as possible for readability/efficiency. So, if a major component is listed in the name its likely not repeated in its description.....

Thanks btw on the compliment. The menu engineering took some time and we collaborated quite a bit.
