   The next time your in the mood for wings and I'm talking big, tender, spiced just right wings. Go to B. Halls!
Super Bowl Sunday we called in an order of 40 King Wings- $27.99 to go. Picked them up in a nice, disposable pan . Great idea for the ncxt time you need to bring an appetizer to a party. These wings are the best! Not breaded but crisp outside and meaty and tender. These things are huge for chicken wings.
