Help!!! I know it's blood and harmless but it's pretty gross. I'll usually cook about 12-16oz of chicken wings, at 375 for 40-50 minutes.

And every time, like clock work, black goo. What the hell am I doing wrong??

 

[SRG01]

Do you let them thaw at all?

 

[Konka]

The fuck?

 

[SeanR1221]

Do you let them thaw at all?

Nah I throw them in frozen.

 

[hydruxo]

Maybe get some fresh chicken wings instead of frozen ones? Just a thought

 

[Bucket Mouse]

Was the black goo different than the sparkly green goo?

 

[Atlantis]

That's just the soul OP, nothing to worry about.

 

[Grinchy]

This doesn't answer your question, but if you deep fry them first, then only use the oven to cook on some nice bbq or hot sauce, you'll have a food orgasm. Then the only goo that will be coming out can easily be cleaned up with a kleenex.

Don't eat the green goo from a raw shrimp.

 

[HoodWinked]

where the pics :/

 

[Freaky Fred]

buy fresh chicken if you don't like burnt blood goo

 

[strafer]

brb imagination since no pics

 

[agrajag]

touch the goo, Sean

 

[InfiniteBento]

I don't know exactly what it is but Its happened to me with other frozen foods.

Its likely a type of mold. It is a big sign that your frozen food is expired and you should absolutely throw it out rather than trying to figure out a way around it so you can eat it.

Black anything coming out of food is a solid NOPE.

 

[Backfoggen]

Blood should be red tbh.

Lol it's not mold.

And if it was mold I'd probably puke my guts out eating 25-30 wings.

 

[Laekon]

Think it's blood or marrow coming out of the bones.

 

[Blood Red Sky]

You're in some deep shit...

 

[agrajag]

Blood should be red tbh.

not when it's cooked at 375 F for 40-50 minutes.

Ding ding ding. It's nothing to be concerned about.

 

[ReadingRambo]

It's fine. OP quit being a baby.

When raw it's red, when cooked it goes dark. Think black pudding.


Edit: Could try a few tips here OP.

 

[AuthenticM]

Uhh, I don't think that's normal. That never happened to me.

 

[SeanR1221]

Gonna try grilling some tonight. Maybe I'll have better results...

 

[djplaeskool]

Probably blood goo, as already noted.
Feel free to thaw and clean the pieces if you don't want to see it.

 

[Backfoggen]

Dark but not black? When I read "black goo" I think pitch black lol.

 

[Supermanisdead]

its not black goo. its just the sauce on the wings burning.

 

[SeanR1221]

I sauce my wings post cooking, bro.

And by sauce I mean just slather them in sriracha

 

[wenis]

boil your chicken for a bit, the blood will seep out that way and they'll cook a lot nicer as well.

 

[jediyoshi]

Maybe I'll have better results...

Also, pictures.

But perhaps that would make it too simple.

 

[Sub_Level]

 

[Man God]

It's the marrow coming out from where the wings were jointed. It's nothing special.

The real troubling thing is that frozen wings are vile as a product. Fresh wings that you freeze yourself and then thaw will produce a much better product texturally. Cook faster too.

It can appear black yeh. Not sure about pitch black though lol. Maybe...

FitBro you are better than this. Those wings are lucky you cook them at all.

Blood is protein. There are cultures that subsist on blood.

 

[Gavin996]

I cook chicken from frozen often and I never get any goo coming out of it... I don't think I would eat it if it did either.

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

Let them thaw a bit brah. I make my own hot wings all the time, let them hoes thaw a bit and then deep fry them.

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

Mix the sriracha with a stick of butter. Your welcome.

Also, buy fresh. Is going to the market every few days that bad?

 

[Face it Tiger..]

Buy pre-bled (Halal) chicken.

 

[SeanR1221]

Will do tonight

Ok grilling tonight. Will see if it makes a difference.

Will provide pics

 

[J10]

This is sad.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

It's just marrow.lol.
Slow and low is key.

 

[speculawyer]

Deep fry.

 

[Zantetsuken]

One of those long parasites?

 

[agrajag]

I do too, but I don't buy them frozen..

 

[the chris]

touch the goo, Sean

 

[Mechazawa]

You have to thaw frozen wings if you are grilling. Or there will be grease fires and it'll be very unevenly cooked.
