I definitely am mainstream on the wing thing, but if a sauce is good enough I’ll only dip every other bite. Has to be an exceptional dressing though.

Yeah I get that. Same thing with crawfish boils. It’s a cultural thing as much as it is a food thing.
I was thinking more along the lines of what would I order at a restaurant; purely thinking about the food and not the trappings or event.
You don’t order crabs at a restaurant. You order them at a crab house.
Once you know how to do it and with some practice, I can plow through a dozen in no time. Everyone does it just a little different but it’s a Maryland family tradition to pass down the ability to pick a crab clean while drinking cheap beer. Do not drink good beer with crabs. I passed it down to my kids just like my dad did for me.

Dipping buffalo wings in blue cheese is an abomination.
damn. I thought we were friends.

@Tago-Mago if it’s on draft, then glass. If it’s from a bottle, then I’m drinking from the bottle.

Some craft beer makers encourage drinking from the vessel they ship in. The Alchemist of Vermont comes to mind. They encourage you to drink the pint from the can.
Some beers I want the bouquet from a glass. I’ve found that yeah sure I can drink Heady Topper from a can, but sometimes I may feel like pouring it into an ale glass. Especially if it’s chilled.

@mclaincausey Green bell peppers are the worst.
-
there is exactly one thing a green bell pepper can do better, and that's season Cuban black beans. It just doesnt taste right without it. Usually just throw a tiny whole chunk in with the beans while they simmer and then remove it. Otherwise, I 100% concur.

@pechelman Absolutely. I'd argue there's one more thing: green bell peppers belong in a trinity for making gumbo.
Can't see myself drinking heavy barrel aged stouts from a bottle, for example.
