"People keep asking us if we're back, and yeah..., this year we're back!!"
We've all been through a lot the last several years, and we believe it's time to do it one more time with a bigger, badder, and most amazing 20th anniversary celebration of the infamous Wing-Off. Let's unleash the party!!
It is with mixed emotions we have decided to make this the final event for the brothers three. For our sunset celebration, we really want to go out in style and need your help to make it the most memorable event in our history! This means we need serious cooking horsepower, recipes, and friends & family to come out and support us as always. Mark your calendars for Saturday, 17-June. You don't want to miss this event.
In the summer of 2001, the Hollingshead brothers decided to answer the question of who had the best hot wing recipe via an informal backyard grilling contest. Since then, our friends, neighbors, colleagues, and new friends have grown this event into an annual taste sensation you don't want to miss.
Guests invited are friends and family of the Hollingshead brothers, any of the cooks, and anyone invited by a cook. We are always looking for new cooks and recipes to discover new and unique tastes (new, traditional, exotic, etc.) that we've all come to enjoy over the years. Wings are not required, as we have a number of folks that wish to share their favorite recipes involving other food types. Sign up and join us to grill, smoke, or deep-fry your favorite recipe and showcase your culinary talents for a great cause!! This is a charity fund-raising event, so you will need a wristband to sample wings. No wristband = no wings.
A veritable plethora of taste diversity that races your palate along the continuum of culinary excellence.
The 3rd Saturday each June, from 11am till we say it's over. The event tends to peak around 1pm, so don't be late as wristband purchase is required to sample wings, and we are limiting the number of wristbands sold to optimize the experience for our guests.
Julius M. Kleiner Park located at the North East corner of Fairview & Eagle Rd, will be the venue for this year's event. Enter the park at the Records St traffic light from the North side of Fairview, across from Walmart and Sportsman's Warehouse.
Cause we said so. Actually, what started as sibling rivalry has grown over the years, and is a way for the cooks and supporting folks to give something back to our friends and family while paying it forward to our community youth, engage in a little smack-talk, and share the greatest wing recipes of all time. Bring what you can to contribute, a blanket, shade canopy, a cooler (no glass), and spend the day with us. Seriously, pack up the family, or just yourself, and join us!!
Event packets containing one wrist band, raffle tickets, and a People's Choice voting card, can be obtained from the "Registration" booth, or on-line ahead of the event (once on-line sales links appear in the upper-right corner of this page). Wristbands are required to sample wings. Pre-event pricing is cheaper than day of event pricing, and is still TBD.
"Come spend a Saturday afternoon with us, and thanks for choosing Wing Off!"
