Moosehead wings compete


Moosehead Grill's wings will compete for the first time in the National Buffalo Wing Festival over Labor Day weekend in Buffalo, N.Y., with co-owner/chef Donnie Anderson taking his staples -- blackened and Bee Stings -- but also adding the fantastically named Hemogoblins (which use blood orange and ghost pepper) and tandoori wings. The place qualified by winning the Carolina Wing Festival competition last September, and co-owner Chris Neilsen and others will be heading to Buffalo as well. The competition categories are seemingly limitless: You can take a look at 2011's to get an idea here. (That's an Observer file photo above of Anderson and Neilsen, from way back in '08, when Moosehead wings won our inaugural Tournament of Food contest.)

As long as there's a Moosehead, they'll have the best wings in Charlotte!

The hemogoblin wings were the best wings at the Buffalo Wing Fest. Sure hope they come back next year.
