Happy Game Day, ya’ll! While the mister is interested in watching the actual you know, game, I am all about the food, drinks, and commercials that come with Super Bowl Sunday. Who is with me?
My fave foods to stuff my face indulge in while watching any sport are nachos loaded with glorious cheese, salt and vinegar chips, and/or chicken wings.
Since we’re watching what we eat these days at Casa de Crews, my beloved nachos are out, as are the chips. But the wings? I found a way around that one, my friends! As a girl born in Buffalo, New York, I knew I had to get a wing fix, somehow.
Tuesday night, we often join our friends for live trivia at our local Buffalo Wild Wings, and I almost always order the Salt and Vinegar dry rubbed wings, when we play. Don’t get me wrong, I love the traditional Buffalo style, but the flavors on the salt and vinegar are my absolute favorite!
So after scouring the internet for the right recipe, I was disappointed to come up empty handed; I was a sad lil’ wing connoisseur–until I played with a few spice combinations to find what I consider the perfect at home salt and vinegar chicken wing. After a bit of trial and error, and copious amounts of taste testing, ahem, I think I finally got this recipe just right.
I baked these babies for a somewhat “lighter” version. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 2 lbs fresh chicken wings - approx 20 wings and drums
- nonstick cooking spray
- 3 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
- 2 tablespoons old bay seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- ranch dressing - , to dip (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Using a bowl, or plastic gallon-sized bag, toss wings in old bay seasoning to coat.
- Line a cookie sheet, or broiler pan with foil. Spray non-stick cooking spray on foil. Line baking sheet or broiler pan with wings.
- Bake for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, flip wings over to ensure both sides become crispy. Cook for 25 more minutes.
- To a separate bowl, mix vinegar and white salt. Toss cooked, crispy wings in vinegar/salt mix.
- Serve with celery and ranch, if desired.

I love Old Bay seasoning. I’ll bet these are delicious! While I am definitely going to try these, it also gave me some great new ideas for wings. Thanks!
Thank you Nicole!
You’re welcome! Enjoy!
I live in Canada and cannot get the Old Bay spice. Can you make any suggestions?
I am allergic to peppers, so they cannot be in the spice mixture.
Oh my, I’d love about 2 lbs of these!
These are the most amazing wings I’ve ever made. I can’t ever find old bay in the stores here (I’m probably just not looking in the right places) but I throw on some random steak seasoning and they’re just as good. Thank you so much for this!
I am so happy to heat you love them, Kaley!
These are some seriously scrumptious wings. I love chicken wings so much. Just something so comforting about noshing them while you watch TV.
What a great idea for seasoning, I bet it makes the wings absolutely lip-smacking delicious!
I think so, Katy! Though, I may be biased 😉
These look fabulous. I love salt and vinegar and have NOT had it on wings and I know that has to change. Yum!!
They really are SO good, Nicole!
I’m so lazy and buy foods out but what an easy great idea!
WOW these wings sound amazing! I pinned them so fast it made my head spin! I can’t wait to give them a try!!
I love salt and vinegar everything! I know these wings would be my fave too!
I’m all about the commercials for sure. This recipe looks yummy! I love buffalo flavor!
Such a simple combo, but I bet these wings are delicious!
They look fabulous. And easy to do too!
Wow those look amazing….definitely need to keep that recipe handy!
What a simple, and simply delicious looking wing! I love these so much!

Oh my goodness, Nichole, your chicken wings are tantalizing! Thank you for sharing the recipe =)
Love the Old Bay touch on these wings. What a great spice to go with the salt and vinegar flavors.
While I’m normally a big fan of salt and vinegar potato chips, these wings are just making me drool! It might be the Old Bay – I’ve been a bit obsessed with it lately 🙂
I love wings my favorite to eat with any game.
Ohhhh YUM! I LOVE wings and I LOVE salt and vinegar anything… I am definitely bookmarking this recipe to try!!! My husband will be very happy too! 🙂
I would kill for a big bucket of these right now, love salt and vinegar ANYTHING

This sound delicious. I love salt and vinegar anything so totally need to make these soon.
Oh my gosh I love these. I’m a mostly vegetarian, but my mouth is watering! The salt and vinegar touch is perfect for me. Pinning!
I can’t believe I’ve never had salt and vinegar wings before! Excellent idea!
These look delicious!!!!
Thanks!
I lovelovelove BWW chipotle dry rub boneless wings. Dipped in ranch.
As a central Pennsylvanian, I can attest to the northeast’s love of wings. I spent 3 years as a bartender serving wings and beer.
What a creative spin on chicken wings! I love salt & vinegar and on chicken wings, yes please!!
Oh ya, don’t these look wonderful, I will have that whole platter!!!
Oh man…my husband would love these!!!
Oh, yum, Nichole! I’ve never had salt and vinegar wings but that’s one of my favorite potato chips flavors so I know I’d adore it on wings. Pinning on my Recipes to Try board!
The first time I ate these out, I was intrigued by this flavor on wings, and ever since then I crave them!
Dear lord, these look amazing!! I’m pinning these to try soon. I love baking wings too. I mean, why not? Cuts down on calories and it’s way less mess! Dumb question though: what is white salt?
Exactly! Plus, if you’re making at home, less smell like with frying you know? Not dumb at all; white salt is just regular ol’ table salt.
Nichole, I love wings and could eat any and all varieties; yours with the lip-smacking salt and vinegar flavor would however be devoured! Perfect for the big game or any day! xo
we like to devour wings, here too. Esp these!
Duuudeeeee I am making these the first chance I get!! I am not only a wing lover, but a salt & vinegar connoisseur. Thanks for making my mouth water at 10am.
I do what I can, my friend 😉
Boy, if I didn’t already have my menu in place I’d be making these. I’ve never had this flavor combo.
Hopefully you can find another reason to make these wings, soon!
I’m with you! I’m all about the food, drinks and commercials too!! My husband would devour these babies, thanks for a new recipe to try out on him!
I hope he enjoys!
and here i was thinking this recipe was going to be super complicated!!! thanks for sharing; can’t wait to make these tonight.
