I really don't like Pizza Pizza wings..especially the gross soggy classic style.So when I noticed Pizza Pizza is test marketing wings in the Hamilton area at 50 cents a piece, I was reluctant but intrigued. And with some minor adjustments was very pleased. My first encounter was the day they were released..and of course it was predictably bad...soggy and barely sauced. But I gave it another try..I always order online, as Pizza Pizza outsources to Bangladesh, so phone orders come out really wonky. I requested well done wings, in the special instructions of my delivery order, - note to Pizza Pizza- why is not well done a choice for wings.- So as of last night, I have finally tried all the Fully Sauced flavors- from our test market, so I feel I can comment on their quality.
#1 best of the best : but for all flavors this is a vital comment, well done is a must, otherwise it is a soggy mushy mess. But for me of the new flavors, note they do not allow their awesome mild sauce as a choice- The best of the fully sauced flavours- btw I have yet to get the fully sauced, but understand complaining for credit on not fully sauced is pathetic and will result in equally lame credit- but I digress...#1 was by far the sesame, teriyaki. A nice blend of sweet and tangy...works well with the breading, #2 was Sweet chili thai, a sweet and spicy blend, sure a lot of places carry this but Pizza Pizza has perfected it. #3 was 40 creek Barbecue, a lot like Jack Daniels BBQ, except it worked with wings..where Jack's was more Rib suited. #4 was a shock to me, Jamaican Jerk- an awesome blend of spice and citrus and definitely addictive to those who don't mind the medium spice, having never tried jerk before, I was pleasantly surprised. The honey garlic was the orange hued variety not black, and my wife sweared by it, I found it a decent try and my 5th place of the 6, it was just alright....ok admittingly I don't like sweet wings. The final flavor was a miss spelled cinfully hot....okay, let be honest, it's regular Franks red hot...and as per such..was boring. So in closing,
I hope these wings do stay around and at the 50 cents a piece in this test market, as long as the franchisees are not cheap and follow the fully sauced promotion..btw.. in this review period over 1 month...the fully sauced metric was meant only 30 percent of the time- again this is cheap franchisees in my area- But a must to order is well done...it makes for a great taste..if not...well be prepared for soggy, slimy underdone food.
Oh Pizza Pizza, we have a connection, in both that you used to make the party sized pies in the '80's that made me fall in love with pizza, but are now a joke... but you have made great secondary products, like these wings and the even better chicken bites. and for other reasons I cannot disclose here......We will definately add Mr Overs to our prayers...he passed in March and was a visionary in his creation of a great company, with many innovations, but I have to note, that Pizza Pizza has been outsourcing to 3rd world countries, in the last few months, so for good orders, much like anywhere else..order online.
Fully sauced wings, if you make it every where, and well done ...you have earned a rating of 4.87 out of 5.
