Yeah, uh, slight mishap when I went to make the wings for the Super Bowl party for my blog, The ADD Show. I was getting the oil ready to deep fry those bad boys when the other half of The ADD Show, Aaron Gottlieb, alerted me that there was a significant amount of smoke coming from the pot. When I removed the lid, as John Madden would say, “BOOM!” It blew up in flames.
After learning pretty quickly that blowing on the fire wasn’t the route to take (in fact, it made the flames at least double in size), we came up with a better solution. And water isn’t a much better solution.
Yes, the fire department had to be called after I tossed the pot of flaming vegetable oil out of my second-story window.
No, this did not stop me from cooking the wings when we were all allowed back inside. It’s all about priorities.
Anyway, there’s more to the story. Not only are wings just that important, but The ADD Show rated all the commercials – that’s right – all of them.
