Instructions

  • Prepare your workspace with a clean cutting board and a sharp knife.
  • Locate the two joints in the wing and cut through the skin where the drumette meets the wing flat.
  • Apply pressure and cut through the first joint, then repeat for the second joint to separate the wing flat from the wing tip.
  • Optionally, trim the wing tips for a neater presentation.

Notes

Use a flexible knife to maneuver around the bones easily and keep hands dry for grip.
