5 whole wings were randomly selected.

From top to bottom is sample 1 - 5.

Wings were separated to drums and flats and tips were removed.

All edible meat was removed from each section. Only cartilage was left. (Note, the inferior portion of the wings, ie; the drums contained large amounts of cartilage where as the flats produces none.

Each samples drums meat and flat meat was weighed in grams on a kitchen scale.

1. Drum 16g........Flat 22g
2. Drum 22g.....Flat 19g
3. Drum 29g.......Flat 20g
4. Drum 28g.......Flat 19g
5. Drum 33g......Flat 26g

Drums clearly contain slightly more meat than flats. Sample number 1 was an odd wing that may have been cut weird in processing causing that drum to weigh less. I wouldn't suspect it to be very common based on the findings.

One clinical observation made by the researcher was, that upon eating the samples after the weighing; The meat from the flats was delicious and tender, with a more rich flavor and overall superior eating experience. The meat from the drums was dry, similar.to chicken breast and require much more dipping sauce then the neighboring Flat meat.

What was the cooking method and length of time they were cooked?
Will you have a dry rubbed vs sauce in the next round of testing?
