Little meat? You cook 2kg at a time for a reason.
What's hard work about putting it in your mouth, clamping your teeth down and stripping the bone out?
Do I seriously need to make a video tutorial on how to eat?
Buy a slow cooker [MENTION=8399]0ni[/MENTION]; if you like curries you'll never cook them any other way
I already have a slow cooker
Tajine is vastly superior for curries- you're not stewing it, you're marinading it then cooking
Oni, With your chicken wings, Do you eat the meat/skin then re weight the bones and subtract from the total weight?
Its always wigged me out, Even with chicken legs, All macros are without the bone. so when they say 100g of chicken wings or legs, Thats meat and skin without bones.
Like 2kg of wings says 322 g of protein, but that is meat only... more then half the weight is actually bone.
2kg of chicken thigh meat is 350g protein. But that's meat only
Thus, I find it hard to understand how 2kg of chicken wings can have close to the same amount of protein, Yet half the weight is bones....
That's not right. Bone doesn't weight that much at all. My skeleton weighs 2.6kg according to my last DEXA.
2kg of wings, meat only, is on average 374g of protein.
2kg of wings, meat+bones+skin, is on average 322g of protein.
According to calorieking, in a medium wing (80g), 27g is skin and bones, ie only 30%, and part of that is skin.
I get my info from nutritiondata.self.com. When you list it as per 100g, and specify that you're after the chicken wing, raw and unprepared it lists the correct macros. You can specify bone removed and also without the skin. TBH though, you should stop worrying about pointless, trivial shit like this.
To put this to rest, I just went through my trash and found the largest of the main two bones in a chicken wing and it weighed between 5-6g. My wings are roughly 110g a piece.
I eat many of the small bones anyway, they are good for you, generally eat the whole thing and I'll drink the left over fat after as well

I agree on not worrying about the little shit, BUT.... if im going out of my way to fuck around counting cals and what not, then id rather do it right.
I just dont get how 2kg of chicken wings can have close to the protein of 2kg of bonless meat.
I will buy 2 kg on wings, and strip all the meat of the bones and weight each part. Just so i can sleep well at night.
i LOVE wings, i just refuse to eat them much because i cant log them accurately
Fuck wings anyway. Real men eat steak.
