The Classic Pizza Chain With Chicken Wings That Outshine Domino's And Buffalo Wild Wings

Lots of fast food chains have begun selling sauce-drenched wings as a side dish to their main dishes, but according to our survey of fast food chicken wings, Pizza Hut just might have the best ones of any fast-service pizza chain out there. It outflanked both Domino's and Buffalo Wild Wings, according to a Tasting Table tester; Pizza Hut was placed at number 10, higher than Domino's and Buffalo Wild Wings.

Our writer praised both the wings' crunchy skin and its delicious, meaty flavor, which were absolutely wonderful solo. "These came out of the fryer mighty nice, without all the usual heartburn and worse that I've found consuming Pizza Hut's actual pizza: No weird additives, just fresh wings, crispy skin, surprisingly good flavor, despite coming across as the very definition of the word plain," wrote our reviewer — and this is fitting, since the writer ordered them all without sauces. But if you'd like to jazz up your Pizza Hut chicken wings order, there are plenty of ways to do so.

Fans online praise Pizza Hut's wings

Several users posting to r/wings on Reddit think that they know why The Hut's poultry is so good. "It's because they're one of the only chains that own a deep fryer," said one commenter. But others simply enjoy the bold flavors they offer up. "Crispy and perfectly sauced every time, the smoky, vinegary hot sauce with just the right amount of heat ... AND the handy little plastic wing-bubble they come sealed in so you can give them one last shake before you devour them? C'mon! These are 10/10 for me," they said. And that's definitely not an isolated opinion.

You don't have to keep them plain if you do order some Hut Wings. If you'd like to dig into a pile, Pizza Hut Wings are available tossed in seven different toppings: Garlic Parmesan, Honey BBQ, Buffalo Mild, Buffalo Medium, Buffalo Burnin' Hot, Sweet Chili, and Spicy Garlic. You can also have them coated in one of two dry rubs: Lemon Pepper and Cajun-Style. You can order them bone-in, or breaded and boneless. The saucy goodness of the chain's chicken also goes very well with the other easy-to-pick up, popular menu items Pizza Hut sells.
