Best way to reheat chicken wings?
I had enough leftovers for two more meals, which I wrapped separately in tinfoil. My standard method to reheat 'que is to steam the foil packs in my stock pot/veggie steamer; this normally works fine for brisket, pork, etc. However, it didn't do so well on wings, the skin took on a pretty yucky, flabby texture.
Any tricks to reheating wings that you guys know about? Or are they one of those "best eaten right away" foods? Thanks!

I reheat chicken parts (not wrapped, just on a sheet of foil) in my toaster oven. I have never cooked wings, but all the other parts reheat well there. I use 350° for 5-10 min.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I reheat in the oven at 250. Usually 20 minutes (wings go in when the oven is turned on).Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

Since I'm the only one eating leftover wings I just nuke a few at 60% for a couple minutes. Works for me - maybe not you.Re-gasketing America one yard at a time.

Best eaten right away as you note-I will nuke like @RRP if that's the only option, otherwise the toaster oven works better for the skin. But wings are still great even after the first go 'round.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer!

Agree with the toaster oven and on a sheet of foil.

Leftover wings. Never heard of them

I re heat any chicken in the microwave then a quick broil in the oven for skin texture

Toaster oven when I reheat. I generally cook my wings crispy/well done, so they're usually good cold out of the fridge - like ribs.

If you don't have a toaster oven, you could always do convection in the range if you have that option. If not and you really want to eat good wings, I would fire up the egg and do em raised direct at about 300 degrees. I would thing 20 minutes would get the job done. I really love wings but leftover nuked is about as good as nuked hot dog in my opinion. (I have eaten plenty of those in my life too!)

Thanks guys. I have a pretty nice toaster oven that, for three years, has made, uh, toast. Will give that a try.

I've been putting mine in the oven on low.
