ORIGINAL HV RANCH DRUMETTES ( WINGS )
This was one of the first party/potluck dishes that my best friend ever made after we graduated from H.S. She always doubled it up and never had any leftovers. I didn't like any spicy food then so I never asked for the recipe. 20 years later I found it on the HVR website. It will also work for chicken tenders as well. My friend always served this with the usual suspects...celery and ranch dip.
