**Ingredients:**

*For the Wings:*

- 2 pounds chicken wings, split into drumettes and flats

- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

- Vegetable oil for frying

*For the Buffalo Sauce:*

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter

- 1/2 cup hot sauce (Frank's RedHot is a classic choice)

- 1 tablespoon white vinegar

- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

- Salt to taste

**Instructions:**

**1. Prep the Wings:**

   - Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps achieve crispiness when frying.

   - In a bowl, toss the wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated.

**2. Refrigerate and Air Dry:**

   - Place the wings on a wire rack over a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight. This allows the skin to dry, promoting crispiness during frying.

**3. Preheat the Oil:**

   - Fill a deep fryer or a large, deep pot with vegetable oil. Heat the oil to 375°F (190°C).

**4. Fry the Wings:**

   - Carefully add the wings to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd. Fry for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

   - Remove the wings with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.

**5. Make the Buffalo Sauce:**

   - In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add hot sauce, white vinegar, cayenne pepper (if using), garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Stir until well combined.

   - Simmer the sauce for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Adjust the salt and spice levels to your preference.

**6. Toss the Wings:**

   - In a large bowl, toss the fried wings with the prepared buffalo sauce, ensuring an even coating.

**7. Serve and Enjoy:**

   - Arrange the Buffalo Wings on a serving platter and serve with your favorite dipping sauce and celery sticks.

**Optional Tips:**

- **Crispy Skin Tip:** Ensure the wings are thoroughly dry before frying to achieve crispy skin.

- **Double Fry Technique:** For extra crispiness, fry the wings once, let them cool, and then fry them again for a shorter duration.

- **Adjust Spice Level:** Customize the spiciness of the buffalo sauce by adjusting the amount of cayenne pepper.

- **Blue Cheese Dip:** Serve the wings with a classic blue cheese dipping sauce to complement the heat.

**Conclusion:**
